Having excellent sporting facilities in our area not only helps maintain a healthy community, it can also help to develop new talent amongst our young sport players. I worked closely with Bay House School and Bridgemary School to secure funding for their new facilities – a brand new sports hall and a cutting edge 3G football pitch respectively. Bay House's new hall is almost ready to go and the new pitch at Bridgemary was opened earlier this year. Both of these facilities will be used by community sports teams as well as school students.
