We have received some astoundingly good news and are finally ready to spread the word.
Your committee has been working away for many months to apply for a Sport England grant. Their limit is £15,000 per application and we went in with £14,043 in the hope that we might secure at least £5,000. We're ecstatic to say that our proposal: "Ready Fence! Adding capacity to meet fencer demand" has been funded . . . (drumroll please) . . . IN FULL!!!!!!
We signed the grant last week.
This grant gives us funding to increase the number of fencers at the club, and to achieve this by hiring new coaches so that we can increase the number of coaches per session, and add to the number of sessions. It also gives us money for some new equipment and advertising.
We'd like to thank you, our club members, for your energy, talent and ongoing support for MX Fencing. Your success on the piste is getting noticed, and there is a buzz about our growth.
With this award, we will take the club still further and help you achieve your fencing goals and dreams.
