Launching our Accessibility Fundraiser 2024
Saturday the 14th December- part 2
After our Plum Pudding Races finished, we were honoured to be presented a cheque by Will Turner of Sport England

Receiving the cheque is James Holmes-Siedle, longstanding club member, architect and access expert who has been part of our fundraising and build teams for both our balcony and now our lift and surfacing project. We are lucky at PTRC to have members who donate their time and skills and James' momentum driving and expert bid writing has been priceless!

✨We are delighted to announce the award of a £15k grant from The National Lottery and Sport England Movement Fund towards our Accessibility Project.

A similar grant from National Lottery and Sport England in 2012 helped towards building our ramp steps, the benefits of which we continue to appreciate today.

With generous donations from club members and fundraising events organised by squads and individuals we are excited to share that we have reached the halfway mark.

We are aiming to complete this project by Spring/Summer 2025. Head to our crowdfunder page, link above, for more detail and updates, to donate if you are able and please do reach out with any questions or suggestions.

💖Thanks to everyone who plays games for your support!

With less than 2 months to go! Come along and join in our annual dinner with PTRC awards and dancing!
