Grant of £985.00 for new equipment

Members of the Bridgemere Centre Bowls Club were celebrating today after receiving a grant of £985.00 from the National Lottery’s Awards for All programme.

 

This grant will enable the group to buy a new mat to replace the old one which is in a very poor state of repair and which makes a good game very difficult.   Although the group play for fun each week, it is important to have proper facilities and this can now be provided.

 

Group spokesman Peter Friedman said ‘It’s really good news, we are absolutely delighted. We hope now that more people will join us on a Tuesday morning’.

 

The Bridgemere Bowls Club meet on a Tuesday morning from 9.30 am to 12.00.  The emphasis is very much on fun and friendship not intense competition.
