Marsie’s club receives cash boost
Darley Bridge-based club Derwent Bowmen, the club to which Flagg archer Marsie Henderson-Hirst is a member, were delighted to discover that they were to receive a grant of £1,000 from the Derbyshire Community Foundation.
This grant has been used to purchase a much-needed steel container that will replace the club’s ageing wooden storage shed.
Club chairman Christine Oldroyd said: “The grant will allow us to keep our equipment in a more secure situation.
