It is so pleasing to see it completed! Well done #Teambeeston 👏🏻

[Alan Lane @slunglowalan]

Folk asking who paid for this. Glad you asked.
Nomad Clan did us a discount because they’re brilliant and loved project.
An anonymous Holbeck resident gave a donation specifically towards it.
And the remaining cost was the fee Slung Low got to do The Awakening

@slunglowalan Oh my! That's glorious! 😍
