This collection is open to the whole Academy and our goal is to raise money to replace equipment.

Star Foundation

Room to be announced, but you will be able to bring in your bags before this date.

Notts Gymnastics Academy are continuing with the Star Foundation's Rags2Riches recycling campaign to raise money for the club to help purchase new equipment, kit and help with our running costs.

Items to donate: Clothing, shoes, belts, hats, bed linen, bags, books & cd/dvd's and videos.

The more weight in clothes etc the more money the academy will receive from the Star Foundation.

For your chance to WIN £10 towards your fees bring in as much as you can. For all those taking part in the collection there will be a Lottery Prize of £10 towards your club fees, so please make sure you put your name on all bags you bring in.
