To provide details of the matched funding request received by the Council during the third quarter of the 2018/19 financial year.
A matched funding bid has been received from Sarisbury Athletic Cricket Club towards the cost of the reconfiguration of the changing rooms at the Club’s premises at Allotment Road Recreation Ground, Sarisbury.
It is anticipated that the proposed changes to the layout will increase capacity and accommodate the inclusion of indoor toilets, in addition to increasing the useable space in the clubhouse in such a way as to maximise the space available for other community organisations to hire.
The total cost of the project is £48,000 of which Sarisbury Athletic Cricket Club has applied to Hampshire County Council’s Community Buildings Fund for £16,000.
The club currently has £5,000 pledged in sponsorship from local businesses for the project and, as of the accounting period ending September 2018, had £14,117 listed in current assets.
Sarisbury Athletic Club has requested £16,000 towards their project to reconfigure the changing rooms.
This grant award is critical to the delivery of the project and is also needed to secure the other source of grant funding.
