Bright Futures Sports Hall Project

Aim

Help us light up Blue Flames! Support our LED upgrade to cut energy use, lower costs, and brighten our courts.

Why are we crowdfunding?

We’ve been awarded a £4,200 grant from the Movement Fund to install new energy-efficient LED lighting across our site — but to receive this, we must raise an additional £4,200 through crowdfunding. This upgrade will replace outdated, high-cost lighting, helping us reduce energy use, improve brightness, and make our spaces safer and more sustainable for everyone who uses them.

How we’ll spend the money raised

All funds will go directly toward installing LED lighting in our three sports hall courts.

Budget breakdown:

• £8,400 total project cost

  • £4,200 Movement Fund grant

  • £4,200 raised through crowdfunding
    This investment will significantly lower our running costs and carbon footprint, allowing us to reinvest savings into community programmes and affordable access to sport.

Community impact

Upgrading to LED lighting will benefit hundreds of people who use Blue Flames each week, including local teams, schools, community groups, and families. Brighter, more reliable lighting means safer evening sessions and more opportunities for participation year-round. The project also supports our environmental goals, reducing our energy use and supporting a more sustainable future for our community.
