Community Football Club

LMS Highways helps local community football club repair dangerous access road.

Long Lane is an unadopted dirt and gravel track totaling over 1 kilometer in length and is the only entry point for the football club Watcombe Wanderers.

The Watcombe Wanderers are a volunteer run football club looking to improve the wellbeing of the community and provide safe travel to not only the 350 children they offer training and development for, but also anyone who wishes to enjoy the area, including the frequent walkers/dog walkers enjoying the shared space, and the visiting clubs, supporters and families.

They’re hoping with our involvement, to raise enough funding from local businesses, neighbours and supporters to repair the road. It’s estimated to cost around £40,000.00 due to the abysmal conditions of the lane and the extent of work that will be required.

When this was brought to our attention we were quick to recognise this was something we needed to support them to achieve. LMS Highways believe in the importance of supporting the local community and connecting people by investing in the strategic road network.

By donating to their JustGiving page you’ll be helping provide safe travel, improve local amenities and help people to enjoy healthier lives. – Donate Here!
