Bring back Kernow Gymnastics & Acro Academy
Newquay, England, United Kingdom
Aim
Provide temporary training facilities and transport to keep the gymnasts of Kernow Gymnastics Academy training whilst the gym is rebuilt.
Please help us bring back Kernow Gymnastics & Acro Academy!!!!
Our amazing local gym burned down on Friday 15th December and we desperately need funds to help our 500 strong community of enthusiastic and committed gymnasts get their beloved gym back. The dedicated coaching team are distraught to have lost the gym which opened a new extension only 2 months ago, whilst the gymnasts themselves who spend so much of their lives there are bereft with no where to train.
The fire itself took place after the excited team of gymnasts had gone home after the dress rehearsal for their Christmas display - for which they had spent weeks preparing.
It will be a long and expensive journey to replace the gym with resources needed for interim arrangements required to keep the gymnasts training and achieving, and costly equipment to replace all that was lost. In addition a number of them are due to compete in January and February and need to keep training.
As most of you know, gymnastics requires dedication and commitment - the children and adults who train there and the coaches who invest so much in these individuals spend so much time there it's there 2nd home - please dig deep and help us keep them training.
