Larkfleet Sponsors Local BMX Track

 

Bourne-based house builder Larkfleet Homes (www.larkfleethomes.co.uk) is to sponsor the BMX track at John Eve Way in Market Deeping.

The track is in need of refurbishment and Larkfleet is providing £2,695 to complete the funding of the project.

Karl Hick, managing director of Larkfleet Homes, said: Larkfleet is committed to improving the local community in which it operates. We are looking forward to working with Market Deeping Town Council on this venture and hope to work with them again on other projects.

The primary sponsor for the track is WREN (Waste Recycling Environmental Limited) the not-for-profit environmental body registered to fund projects which are eligible under the Landfill Communities Fund.

Town and district councillor Reg Howard said: The BMX track is well used by local children and bike enthusiasts and was a well received venture when it was built in 2004. The sponsorship money we have raised from Larkfleet and WREN will help to maintain this community asset.

Larkfleet is currently putting together plans for a mixed use development in The Deepings that will provide a much needed arts and cultural centre, a new home for Deeping Rugby Club, an Age Concern day centre, a nursing home and some additional affordable housing.
