On the 4th May 2024 we'd raised £1,030 with 19 supporters in 42 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
Nature Warriors is a community organisation running activities in the Burnley and Pendle areas. We setup at the tail-end of the pandemic to encourage people to become more active with a specific focus on areas relating to nature, outdoors, the environment as well as physical wellbeing.
As we conclude 3 years of being operational we are delighted to have the opportunity to move into a space where we can help to take our wrestling club offering to a higher level, work towards adding other sporting provision in the future and developing an IT suite to create a 'Fight for Peace' type programme which will develop young people using sport, education and employment training as well as personal development sessions.
On the ground floor we will have a strength and conditioning centre which will be a place for our combat athletes to develop, but also a space for the wider community to come and improve their physical health. We will develop partnerships with local groups to allow many people to benefit from the facilities. We recognise some of the challenges our community faces, so we will ensure there are female only sessions in the sports, fitness as well as in the strength and conditioning space. The new centre and the costs associated with the move forms the basis of our fundraiser and we hope you are able to support us!
The money which you kindly donate will go towards two areas - Purchase of equipment to help us to setup or strength and conditioning centre as well as support towards the running costs in our first year in the building. We pray you are able to help kickstart this project at a crucial stage in its infancy.
Keeping fit physically is vital for a positive, healthy and active community. Our aims are to have a local community which has these attributes whether people are young or old, male of female. As accredited partners of the Fight for Peace movement, our programme of education, employment and personal development will provide key transferrable skills that help the community to not only stay fit and healthy, but help with their career goals also.
