Lottery funding for Castleton Primary School and Crimble Croft Community Centre

Two projects in Rochdale have been awarded funding from the Big Lottery Fund.

Castleton Primary School has been awarded £9,480. The school will use the funding to provide a programme of after school activities that will improve the physical health and fitness of children. Activities will also improve confidence and self-esteem. 

Crimble Croft Community Centre has been awarded £8,000. The organisation will use the funding to run a series of dance based fitness classes. This will enable the organisation to engage community members in physical exercise to combat rising rates of obesity whilst bringing together people from different generations and ethnic backgrounds in order to reduce the number of incidents of discrimination and anti-social behaviour.
