From today's Daily Express:
"The last airworthy Vulcan nuclear bomber in the country can fly again, thanks to a £2.7 million lottery grant. The huge delta winged plane has been mothballed at Bruntingsthorpe(sic) airfield in Leicestershire awaiting restoration.
Robert Pleming of the Vulcan in the Sky charity said: 'At last we can begin work on Vulcan XH558 to return her to her rightful place. We hope to have a test flight around August next year"
