Supporting Sport In Our Community
On Wednesday, 8th November, we were with Thorpe Bay Angling Association to present a defibrillator to them that will improve the safety of their members fishing along the beaches, at sea and during meets at other venues.
We provided a grant and sourced the equipment from the wonderful London Hearts.
Many thanks to Chester’s for hosting us.
The Finish Line Fund would like to thank all of the organisers of the Leigh-on-Sea Strider’s Halloween themed 10k on the evening of Wednesday, 1st November. To all of the wonderful marshals from Leigh-on-Sea Striders, all of the runners who made the night so special, and the event sponsors, RunActive Essex and happystride, thank you so much!
In total, the event raised £5,000 and Finish Line Fund is absolutely amazed at the extremely generous donation, which will allow us to continue our work supporting sport and making those places where sport takes place safer.
This year we have issued 32 grants to clubs and event organisers for various equipment, training courses, sponsorship and increased our defibrillator estate now to 28.
A massive thank you
