PETER JENNISON Posted June 28, 2007 Author Share Posted June 28, 2007 many thanks,looks a bit daunting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Meredith Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 not realy peter, it was all pretty straight forward, in the first instance you just ring them up and have a chat with someone about what you are trying to achieve with the club, if you are trying to make the club more accesible to people that cant be catered for at the present they are very helpful, well worth the effort, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john stones 1 - Moderator Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Just came across this thread, any of you folks applied for it ? Our club has and we were successful, we have been given help with buying ground maintenance tools and a marquee for events. It was pretty straightforward and they looked on us very favourably as we are community based. If you could do with help towards something for your club, give it a go, you may be pleasantly surprised. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avtur Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 That's really good to hear, well done. I'm glad to hear my lottery ticket purchase has helped ... because I didn't win! Seriously though, it's good to hear that lottery funding does reach our hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
