Tanfield Bowling Club is today celebrating the news that it has received a £20,000.00 funding boost from SUEZ Communities Trust (formerly SITA Trust) to New Roof Project.
Funding will allow the club to replace the roof. This will ensure that the building is water tight and safe for continued community use. The building is open to everyone all year round and following the roof works the members and community will have a safe and warm facility to use for many years to come.
Carol Munro, Secretary of Tanfield Bowling Club said: “The Committee and Members of Tanfield Bowling Club are delighted to receive the funding for a new roof and would like to thank SUEZ Communities Trust for this funding”
Marianne Ivin of SUEZ Communities Trust added: “The roof of the Bowling Club was really causing issues for the club so we are delighted to be able to help them replace it and to allow the continued use of the building for the users.”
SUEZ Communities Trust provides funding awards through the Scottish Landfill Communities Fund – an important source of funding which came into effect in April 2015. The scheme is linked to the Scottish Landfill Tax and encourages landfill site operators to provide contributions to approved bodies, who can then pass the funds onto community and environmental projects.
