It's a fond farewell to one of our founder Trustees

Alan Sedgebeer joined the Tiverton Recreational Trust from it's beginning in 2007 and has provided sterling service for the past 19 years.  His support and knowledge has been of great support to fellow Trustees and many grant recipients our Trust has been able to help along the way.

 

Chairman Hedley Steele said:

"It's always been service with a smile from Alan and his dedication and wish to help the talent of Tiverton has never faded.  The TRT will find it hard to fill his shoes and we are actively seeking to appoint another Trustee as soon as possible."

Welcome to the new website!

Welcome to our new website! We hope to be able to post updates on the progress and achievements of the people we’ve supported this year in the near future.

 

Although the grant window for 2025 is now closed, we have been able to provide limited funding to committed individuals seeking to progress in their sport, performing arts or other recreational pursuits.

 

Support is provided towards fees, equipment ,kit, training and travelling expenses. The Grant window usually opens at the start of June each year, when we invite people to complete their grant application.

 

The trustees then meet in early July to consider applications, based on our grant making policy. Applicants are then informed within a few days of the meeting if they’ve been successful in their application.
