Sporting Penistone
What our donation will help fund
The donation will go towards phase one of a redevelopment plan to reconfigure the internal layout of the leisure centre. This reconfiguration will allow the centre to host more activities for different people throughout our community.
The plans will create a ‘changing place’ for people with severe disabilities, allowing them to access the centre which they could not have done previously. Plans also include a community café, which the charity hopes to use to reduce social isolation and provide hot meals and after school clubs.
The centre sees around 10,500 users per year and has over 40 volunteers. The renovations to the centre will improve the experience for all of these people, and hopefully more as accessibility to the centre improves.
