02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
We are set up to provide a safe place for our members and people from the community to come and play the sport of bowls. We hold events nearly every weekend which has a small buffet as well so people can enjoy a good day out and have a cup of tea and a sandwich. We extended our use of the building to include a safe area for or junior's to sit and change also using the same area if some of our members just want a peaceful area to have a talk. We not have our presentation day in our club and a Christmas dance which have now started because of our renovations so more of the club can be used ( we got a grant to lower the ceiling which makes the area warmer for us to use ) We still are one of the cheapest club around which helps the community people to play bowls which is affordable . We have a full inclusion members policy as we are open to all plus we allow other charities to use our premises
