David Wilson Homes have donated £1,500 to help Basingstoke Gymnastics Club source new mats for their members.

The funding comes via The Barratt Foundation, which supports charities both large and small, local and national, in the communities where the housebuilder operates.

Club Finance and Admin Manager Karen Holmes said: “When I had the email to say we’d been chosen to receive the donation, it was received very gratefully and was also a great surprise.

“Being a charity, any donations we receive mean so much to us as we can keep the club safe and exciting for our customers.”

The club offers fun and inclusive classes for all ages, needs and abilities.

Their facilities include a huge soft floor area, an aerobic sprung floor, three tracks, asymmetric, parallel and high bars, rings, a vault area, and two sunken trampolines with a large pit area.

Campbell Gregg, MD at David Wilson Homes Southern, added: “We’re thrilled to offer our support to Basingstoke Gymnastic Club as it continues to be such a valuable amenity for the local community.

“Our Community Fund scheme is designed to help the fantastic charities and organisations in the areas we build, and we hope our donation will help to inspire the current and future generations of gymnastics.”
