Funding for Community Projects
Sport Works is a social enterprise aiming to
improve the health and well-being of Yorkshire communities. They have a great track record of securing external funding to facilitate a range of
projects and are now looking to work with Yorkshire schools and organisations
who are interested in supporting health-based programmes from the heart of their communities. If your group or charity would benefit from fully
funded activities we would be pleased to hear from you to discuss how we could
work together. We would love to hear from local
groups/charities that are already making a real difference in
the community and are especially keen to work with groups who support individuals with mental health difficulties, black, ethnic and minority community groups, economically disadvantaged, elderly residents and people with disabilities. Please get in touch now for an informal chat
to see how we can work together - contact Managing Director, Simon Leonard on 01274

On Wednesday 4th July, members of the local community got together at the Sedbergh Youth & Community Centre for a BBQ.
