Local club is bowled over by donation

Local bowlers have had a great start to the season thanks to a generous donation from Churchill Living.

The retirement housebuilder, which has recently built its Tamarisk Lodge development in East Wittering, has donated two oak benches to Witterings & District Bowls Club in the town.

The donation was part of the company’s commitment to support the local communities in which it builds. Churchill’s sales and marketing director Sam Burley took part in a presentation at the Club, before delivering the first bowl of the new season.

Chris Horsley, secretary at Witterings & District Bowls club, said: “We are extremely grateful to Churchill Living for this kind donation and for supporting our Club. We’re always on the lookout for new members so welcome anyone who would like to have a go at lawn bowls to come and visit us at our friendly club.”

Sam Burley, sales and marketing director at Churchill Living, said:

At Churchill, we recognise how important it is for us to play an active role in our local communities, so it was fantastic to get involved with the bowls club. It was a pleasure to meet everyone, and we look forward to offering further support to the club in the future.

With less to worry about, Owners will have more time to do the things they enjoy, including taking advantage of the host of other benefits which will be on offer including having family or friends to stay in the development’s well-appointed Guest Suite, and enjoying a chat with neighbours, or attending one of the many events, in the Owners’ Lounge. They can also take advantage of Churchill’s Reward Card which gives them access to exclusive deals and discounts on a variety of national brands and local retailers.

The development is set in landscaped grounds in a central location, just a short distance from public transport links, shops and all the local amenities on offer in East Wittering.
