GRANT AWARDED - Our Lady’s Catholic College Dance Team
The 3R Foundation recently awarded £500 to Our Lady’s Catholic College Dance Team for dance competition costumes. The team is Our Lady’s Catholic College’s first dance team and has been formed to compete in competitions across the north west.
They aim for the team to grow in size and hope to inspire other schools and students in the area to join them in future.
As a newly formed organisation they approached us at the 3R Foundation as they were looking for support as dance competitions require entry fees, transportation and accommodation just to attend, and there is also then the cost of costumes, equipment and supplies to be considered. They are very aware that any sport can be costly, so they aim to provide as much help as possible for their students, especially as a large number come from low income households, and they don’t wish to exclude any students based on their abilities or financial circumstances. The girls are doing a lot of fundraising but the grant has enabled them to purhase a large selection of dance costumes in lots of styles and sizes which will hopefully kickstart the team in their endeavours.
