Turton Community Sports Centre Roof Appeal
(Turton School Parents' Association)
Dear Sir/Madam
Turton School is very proud to run a community sports centre which provides affordable and easy access to sports activities for local residents. Since taking over the running of the centre in
2012 the sports centre staff have worked hard to increase the range of activities available and the centre is busy every evening and weekend with young and old taking part in a wide range of sporting activities
including swimming, fitness classes, martial arts, football and much more.

The sports centre has also run various community based activities which have allowed local families to participate in a wide range of free sporting and educational activities.
Recent work at the school has highlighted that the sports hall roof will need significant repairs in the next two years. I am sure you are aware of the funding pressures facing schools and no additional funding is received from Government to run the sports centre.
The repairs to the roof will cost around £75,000. To fund this the Parents’ Association are appealing to local residents, sports centre users and businesses for donations.
We would be grateful if you could spare some money however large or small to help us to keep the sports centre running.
If you would like to donate £35 or more you could commemorate your gift with an inscribed block which will be displayed on the sports centre corridor.
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. If you would like to donate then please complete the form below.
