This club is for young people, aged between 11 and 25, who have learning and/or physical disabilities. We provide a range of activities throughout the year, aiming to give people a chance to try something new, and to participate in an activity outside of school or college. The emphasis is on having fun, but people will also gain social skills, improve fitness, coordination and sports skills. News (click here for old news) Bishop on the Bridge, Winchester The pub held a charity fund raising evening on 13th November and will soon be presenting the club with £466 raised at the event. Great South Run Rebecca coaches our gym and aquafit sessions, raised over £400 for the club by running in the Great South Run on October 25th. You can still support her and the club by sponsoring her run. Sponsor on-line at www.charitychoice.co.uk and search on Multi-sports club or on the charity number 1109962
Sponsored Walk We had a great time, thanks to Phil for leading the walk and telling us so much about the history of the park. Sponsorship money is still coming in, over £600 so far! We donated £250 to the QE2 Activity Centre from our sponsorships in recognition of their support over the years.
Grant success - we have received £4235 towards our summer activities via the Hampshire County Council Youth Opportunity Fund and we have been successful in our bid for £2700 towards Friday football skills. Both grants pay for hire of venues and coaching/instructor fees. Barbecue - Saturday 20th June Result!

________________________________________________________ We are delighted that we have been formally approved for Non-branded affiliation of the Royal Mencap Society. This was a long process involving much paperwork and writing policies. What do non-branded affiliated groups get?
Last year we decided that it would be worth the effort for the credibility it will add to the club, and to enable us to access their CRB checking procedures.

If anyone would like all the photos, let Susan have a CD or memory stick to copy for you.
_______________________________________________________Return to top of page We have done really well collecting vouchers this year. We have ordered new bibs for the football group, and a large first aid kit. They will arrive during the autumn term.
Thanks to all who helped. _____________________________________________________________
Sunday 6th September
at QE2 Activity Centre, Bursledon, starting at 10.00 and lasting about 2 hours.
Join us or sponsor us and raise funds for the club.
We rely on grants to keep operating, but we will need additional
funds to continue running the full range of activities.
Please support us.
Last year was great and we raised £355, shared between us and the QE2
Activity Centre, and we hope to do even better this year.
Phil Oates, the centre manager is a heritage guide and we learned
all about the park’s history.
This worked really well, because we had frequent stops to listen to his
stories, giving us a chance to catch our breath before moving on. This year the walk will be a bit shorter and we will finish back at the centre for a BBQ! Bring your own food to cook, or bring a picnic with you and join us for a chance to relax afterwards. Please let us know if you will be joining us, and bring family, friends and anyone you can!

We have confirmed bookings now, and will
definitely be holding a Barn Dance on Saturday 31 October 7.30 -
10.30pm at the
QE2 Activity Centre, Bursledon.
Please mark it in your diaries!
We need to sell lots of tickets to cover
our costs, so bring all your friends and family along too. It should
be great fun - some of us attended one with the band, the Woodsiders(www.woodsiders.co.uk)
a few months ago, and it worked really well.
Food will be bangers and beans, in true
cowboy style! (Hats optional!) Let us know of any special dietary
requirements.
Bring your own drinks, although we will
have some soft drinks for sale.
Tickets are on sale NOW!, from
committee members. Prices £8 adult, £5 child (u 16) or family ticket
of 2 adults and 2 children for £24. Excellent value for money for a
Saturday night's entertainment.
Hope you will all be able to make it
there!
If you have any ideas or contacts please get in touch with a committee member.
Page updated 13 June 2009 __________________________________________________________ Sponsored Walk We enjoyed a great walk on Sunday 21 July, led by Phil Oates from the QE2 Activity Centre who is a Heritage Guide. The weather was good to us, and we spent 2½ hours exploring the area. We learned interesting facts about the river, and people who used to live there. There was Dave the Peddlar who was cut up (literally) and dumped in the river. There was the hidden well, evidence of brick works and old jetties. There was the wreckage of Henry V's ship, Grace Dieu. However, the highlight of the walk was when Phil fell off the fence! Oh how everyone laughed. (He wasn't hurt!)
Many thanks to the families who supported us, by participating and by sponsoring. We raised over £300 and presented a donation of £140 to the QE2 Activity Centre on 4 August. Families who walked, and walked, and walked . . . Small, Perrin, Jones, Daud, Nicholson, Trimmer Not too late to make a donation and reward their efforts on behalf of the club! updated 4 August 2008
Inner Wheel visited the Sunday Multi Sports Group on 22 June 2008 to present us with a cheque for £500 towards our summer activities. Many thanks to them for their fund raising efforts. June 2008
