“Together we will get through these tough times and as an organisation we will do all we can to support our community.
“We are pleased to be able to offer schools and the community free access to online sports sessions and we will reinstate our foundation mobile number for anyone to call if they are struggling, or merely want to chat to somebody.
“I must also thank our funders, who have been outstanding with the support they have provided us. Without them, we wouldn’t be able to provide the excellent range of services that we do.”
All partner schools have automatically been offered free access to the sessions. For more information and to register your interest in receiving access to our structured online sports sessions, please contact: joanne.shepherd@srdfoundation.co.uk
