With funding already secured from the Football Foundation for the building of the pavilion, we now look forward to the construction going ahead.

Bobby Childs, head of the Sutton United Foundation, says: ”Our new community pavilion will enable us to increase our programme offer for local primary & secondary schools, girls’ & women’s football, disability football and walking football to play in Collingwood Recreation Ground and the club itself, plus we would like to reach further into our local community to provide a warm & friendly hub for local people to meet, learn & socialise.”

Further details of the campaign, which closes on Saturday, are here.
