Multi Use Games Area (MUGA) Fencing and Lighting

Aim

We are launching this crowdfunding campaign to raise 60k to build a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA) pitch, fencing and lighting for our school

Who are we?

We are a Primary School based in Rock Ferry

Why are we crowdfunding?

We’re crowdfunding because we simply don’t have the budget to fund a MUGA pitch on our own — but we know how much it would mean to our students and wider school community.

Like many schools, our funding is stretched, and while we can cover day-to-day needs, larger projects like this fall beyond our reach without extra support. A MUGA pitch would provide a safe, all-weather sports space that our students desperately need — but without help from generous supporters like you, it just isn’t possible.

We believe in the power of community, and we’re reaching out to parents, local businesses, alumni, and supporters to help make this vision a reality.

Together, we can build something amazing that will benefit children for years to come.

How we’ll spend the money raised

Every penny we raise will go directly toward building and equipping our new Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA) pitch. Here's how the funds will be used:

Groundworks and Site Preparation – Preparing the area, leveling the ground, and ensuring proper drainage.

MUGA Surface Installation – Laying the high-quality, all-weather surface suitable for multiple sports.

Fencing and Safety Features – Installing secure perimeter fencing, gates, and safety padding.

Sports Equipment – Goals, nets, line markings, and equipment for games like football, basketball, tennis, and netball.

Lighting (if applicable) – To allow for safe use during darker months and after-school hours.

Contingency & Maintenance Fund – A small portion will be set aside for any unexpected costs and initial maintenance.

We will provide regular updates as the project progresses, and full transparency on how the funds are being used.Together, we can create a lasting space that supports physical activity, wellbeing, and school spirit!

This MUGA pitch won’t just benefit our school — it will become a vital hub for the whole community.

Long-Term Benefits:
