Funding

[Angela Williams]

Guys, any help which you can give me would be greatly appreciated ....

We are desperately trying to move our gym club from a leisure centre to an industrial but being a small club are very strapped for cash and will need loads of mats / flooring etc to get started.

If anyone has any mats to sell we would be interested. In addition, do you know of any funding avenues aside from sports council and communities first?

We've had grants from various local community chests etc as well as two Awards For All grants over the last two years - one of which paid for a complete 12 x 12 floor area (mats of course) and the second an air track. Our Council helped point us in the direction of most of the grants and even assisted us by providing the packs and/or contact details to get the packs. Worth a try. Good luck.

you cant get awards for all grants in Wales, and as yet we havnt found something similar. i think that an equipment grant from SCW will pay for most of the matting, fingers x'd!
