FUNDING CASE STUDIES
Hockey club membership boost
Harrogate Hockey Club has seen a 50% cent rise in its membership since Sport England invested over £750,000 of Lottery funds in new facilities at Harrogate Granby School where the club is based.
The grant paid for a full sized synthetic turf pitch with floodlighting, a two-storey club house with changing facilities, function room and a bar.
As a result the club is going from strength to strength and its junior members in particular are reaping the benefits of the superb new playing surface.
Harrogate Granby High School factfile
"The multi-sport hub concept has proven to be one of the most effective means to bring sport and physical activity directly into communities. This new approach focuses on the development of community hubs that combine multiple sports and activities and also have the potential to bring health, social welfare and educational services together under one roof. Sport England has committed to developing a network of multi-sport hubs across the country to boost the number of people actively engaged in sport."
