Jewson's building better communities funding available to sports clubs

Are you looking for funding to do renovate your sports club, improve access to your facilities or transform your changing rooms? Then look no further as Jewson’s, the builders’ merchant, has pledged £100,000 for community regeneration projects.

Jewson will be giving away a top prize of £50,000 to help pay for both materials and labour. Plus there are other prizes of between £1,000 and £5,000 to cover the cost of building materials.

David Fenton, Marketing Director at Jewson, commented:

“Our research also shows that while seven in ten Brits would like to do more for their local areas, nearly ten per cent cite a lack of budget as a reason not to do so. That’s why we’re asking the public to nominate local causes close to their hearts so we can help them achieve the community they dream of. The competition is open for entry from any member of the public, but we’d especially like tradespeople to get involved by putting their local projects forward, as we know that community development is integral to the building industry."

The competition will close for entries on 12 April 2015. For more information, terms and conditions, or to nominate a community project for a £50,000 Jewson transformation, visit facebook.com/JewsonUK or www.buildingbettercommunities.co.uk
