Providing local expertise
‘All for the project, but no local money available’‘Told us to apply to Sport England’
‘Our 3 year development plan is tied very closely to the objectives of their strategic plan
and will create an opportunity for disabled people to participate in this popular sport.
They gave us assistance updating our safeguarding policy and put us in touch with a club in the north of the region who delivered a
similar project last year.’
