Meeting every Saturday at the Ken Marriott Leisure Centre (KMLC). If you have a disability or would like to help, come and see us. Heart of England Community FoundationRugby Sports Day for the Disabledhas now been running for over 25 years. Until 2011 the use of The Ken Marriott Leisure Centre (KMLC) had been provided free of charge. In 2011, however, because of the current economic climate, the council was unable to offer this concession.
Fortunately, however, Peugeot stepped in via The Heart of England Community Foundation to provide much needed support, in the form of a £1500 grant.
As our members will know, the pupils of Henry Hinde Junior School very kindly chose us as their charity back in 2008 and managed to raise a staggering £1000 for us over the following year as well as establishing a very rewarding relationship with us. You can find out more about the school at:
