A fantastic donation for a great bunch of people who attend the stadium all year round, many thanks to Mary Sutherland and her colleagues at Asda Blantyre, their generosity is really appreciated. Any other club/organisation interested in using our excellent facilities please drop by the stadium and our manager will be glad to meet you to discuss the options available to you. ❤️

It was my pleasure to present an Asda Foundation Grant of £500 to Hillview Bowling Club. A great bunch of people who meet Mondays and Wednesdays 2pm to 4pm at Blantyre Miners Indoor Bowling.

They are using the grant to buy equipment to make bowling more accessible for all. Chairman Jimmy said: "We are bowled over and vey grateful to the Asda foundation." adding, "if anyone in the community would like to join us, just pop in and have a go" .
