Warriors Basketball Club funded 72 hours of facility hire and bought new equipment for young people to join free basketball sessions, thanks to a grant given by the William Colton Youth Sports Fund. The ‘Cost of Living/Price of Life’ project funded free taster sessions for young people, focusing on improving fitness and mental wellbeing.
The sessions run in some of the most deprived areas of Leicester and give 8-18 year olds meaningful opportunities to enhance their wellbeing through sports. So far 150 young people have benefited from the grant.
