On Sunday we hosted an event for Transplant Sport (TS), an organisation which uses a wide range of sporting activities as part of rehab and a fulfilling lifestyle for children and adults who have had organ transplants. They believe croquet has a unique value in this context, being competitive and skilful but not overly energetic. The event was modestly attended, but a great time was had by those who did come. Perhaps something to build on? 

Thanks to all who offered to help run this event. In the end we didn't need so many, but it was clear to TS that we cuold have run a much larger event well.  

 

We were delighted to welcome Ruth Edwards, MP for Rushcliffe, to the club on Sunday 12th June. Ruth and her husband Owen heard and saw a bit about the pavilion refurbishment and other projects, as well as our Hoos4Health outreach and the transplant sport event which had taken place earlier the same day, but they pent most of their visit enjoying playing some croquet.
