The Chairman and members of the Tunstead Trosh Committee announce with great regret that owing to circumstances beyond their control there will not be another Trosh.

They wish to thank all of you who have supported them over the years and hope that you have enjoyed attending the events as much as they have enjoyed organising them.

When the Trosh first began the Committee was able to donate two or three hundred pounds to local charities each year. Now, at the final distribution of funds on 24th January 2003 cheques for £500 were given to The North Norfolk Talking Newspaper Association (The Mardler), Caroline House Support Group, Wroxham Surgery, the local Youth Group of the British Diabetic Association, Dilham Pre-School, Stalham ATC Squadron, Tunstead Village Hall and Flood Prevention in Tunstead.

A further £1,500 has been given to Waxham Barn for the purchase of a suitable item of old farm machinery to be included in their museum and £1,500 the Museum of the Broads towards the cost of a working model of a marshman.
