Lyndale Morris Dancers, based in Seaforth, Liverpool, is celebrating after receiving a £300 donation from the MARS Milk Fund.
Established for 33 years, the troupe which has 50 members, trains twice a week and compete in local competitions every Sunday from March to September.
Nicola Edwards, group treasurer, says: “Competitions are a fantastic way of improving the team’s skills and in building up confidence levels. How we look is almost as important as our performance in these competitions and our costumes have definitely seen better days.
“With this donation from the MARS Milk Fund we can now purchase some new costumes for the team and continue to take part in competitions.”
A recent survey conducted by MARS Milk revealed that despite seven out of ten of us starting the week with intention of spending at least two hours on our favourite sport or hobby, cost and tiredness invariably put paid to these plans.
The MARS Milk Fund was set up to help individuals, clubs and groups to try something new or simply to spend more time playing their favourite sport or hobby. The MARS Milk Fund, runs until October 6 2013 and has five £300 awards to donate each week.
The fund is open to residents of, and clubs and organisations based in the UK and Republic of Ireland only. Applicants must be 13 years or over and only one application will be accepted per person, club or organisation.
