 Rugby and sport in the Brixton area is more inclusive and reaching even more people than ever, thanks to a major project supported by South Hams District Council.
To help meet its priority of supporting South Hams’ communities, the Council has provided £57,500 of S106 funding to Plymstock Albion Oaks Rugby Club to go towards the club’s new fitness and wellbeing suite that is open to both club members and the wider community. The project also supports the Council’s strategic playing pitch policy.
The creation of the wellbeing suite is part of a wider project to improve the whole clubhouse. The Rugby Football Union (RFU) has also provided the club with a £50,000 match funding grant from their Impact ‘25 programme toward the redevelopment of their four new changing rooms.
