Sport in Desford is a
Registered Charity (No: 110319) and was set up by Desford Parish Council in 1988
to provide cost effective sports facilities for the local community. Since the
Parish Council purchased the land in 1988, Sid has raised funds from many
sources to develop the site into the half million pound facility that it is
today. Its specific objects are to
provide sporting and recreational facilities for the people of Desford and its
environs, particularly in making provision for bowls, football, tennis, squash,
fitness and running. It is run by a management group which in turn is answerable
to the Board of 6 Trustees, all of whom work on a voluntary basis. There are
currently over 500 members, belonging to the various different sections
mentioned on the home page. SiD attempts to
encourage participation in recreational sports to as wide a group of people as
possible, including people of all ages and physical ability. In doing this it
works closely with partners at Bosworth Sports College, Desford Parish Council
and Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council. |
