Support from the Community

Storage Containers

 Over the years we have benefitted from help  and support from local firms, charities and organisation and this has been no different over the past year when we have been asking for help to provide accommodation for our kit now that the corvettes, and so our security, has gone.

We had support from Barrow Sports Council with our initial set up at the docks.
Since then they have awarded us grants towards coach training costs, this year for Scott and Andy to complete their Level 2 coach awards.
