Our lovely K2 phone box on the Level is now owned by the Parish Council. We have a small budget for paint etc as it is need of care. We also need ideas for what it can be repurposed for and a team of volunteer to do the work. You will have seen a few of these around that have been repurposed into book or plant exchanges. You may have better or more interesting ideas.
