Tynemouth Sailing Club are delighted today to hear that the application for a grand from Sport England has been granted. This is specifically targeted towards refurbishment of the clubhouse. Many of the members responded to an email survey & that response helped to determine the priority listing for the work to be done in the application: New heating , wiring, showers changing room benches and flooring and general club redecoration.
Quotes for the work so far received vary between £198k and £148k and we have made an application to the Sita trust for £60k with the club committing £29k.
In September we will arrange a meeting to further inform members and to consult on the detail of shower designs, decorative schemes etc.
