We're making external improvements to our clubhouse, to improve access, aesthetics and security for the local community. This will help to reduce the running costs and also protect it from vandalism.

Storeys Football Club is one of the oldest amateur sports clubs in the area of Lancaster. Originating as a works team from the world famous Storey Bros of Lancaster, our playing history can be traced back as far as 1887. In recent years the club has gone from strength to strength, with developments on and off the pitch. We have over 200 active members across all of our age groups, from boys and girls as young as 4 years old right the way up to senior players. We want make every effort to make our club safe and sustainable and we need to make some modifications to enable that. The money raised from this campaign help us: - Improve access to the pavilion - Enhance CCTV - Install security fencing and gates to prevent vandalism. - Enhance internal furnishing

What we'll deliver:

  • CCTV Cameras
  • Install inclusive access points
  • Install security fencing

Why it's a great idea:

This project will be of benefit to our members and the wider community, allowing us to open our doors to more people and become a truly inclusive club. We want our club to be seen as a real community asset, and a place that the community can be proud of and engage with. By modernising the outside of the clubhouse, it will ensure that any one who visits or who wants to join will feel welcomed. Improving our security will also ensure the local residents feel more comfortable, reducing crime and encouraging people to look after what is essentially their facility. We are proud of our history and we want to grow opening our doors up to more people.

Steps to get it done:

  • Identify contractors to deliver work
  • Secure quotes and agree timescales
  • Commence work
  • Mid-project review
  • Arrange opening
  • Communicate via social channels and local press
