A bid writing service offered by Bring and Goole MP Andrew Percy has secured tens of thousands of pounds for projects in the Isle of Aholme.
He said: “In Crowle we have been able to secure £20,000 from SSE and £30k from the North Lincs Council Community Grants Pot towards Crowle Colt’s £59,000 project for floodlights. £1,000 also came from Crowle Town Council with the men’s team doing an amazing job of raising £8,000 to make up the rest. That is no mean feat and shows the dedication of the club members and organisers.
“The project will provide floodlights which allows the club to play in the next league. It will also allow the pitches to be used more and enhance the playing experience for both players and supporters.
“In Haxey, we have been able to secure £2,000 in grants for the lighting of the Memorial Cross. This will not only be attractive but will illuminate the village’s history and heritage too.
“Well done to everyone involved in both projects. The ‘Bid Writing Service’ helps formulate and write the bids but the real thanks must go to the volunteers and groups who put in so much work on these projects.
“My team and I are happy to help and thank everyone involved in these projects for supporting our communities in the way they do.””
