To all East District Clubs, Teams, Life Members and Management Team
I wanted to update you on a new initiative that the East District is launching in response to the continuing financial pressures that so many people are facing. We know that many clubs are developing (or have developed) programmes to support athletes whose families are facing financial difficulties. The District is keen to play its part in providing support.
Accordingly, we have developed a Hardship policy which is designed to help athletes at District swimming events who are being supported by their club. Details are provided on the attached guidance notes and an application form is also attached. The support will be backdated to include the two rounds of East District Age Groups that have already taken place.
We hope that this will help to keep athletes competing in these difficult circumstances.
With best wishes to you all.
Duncan McKinnell
President, East District
