Thatto Heath Crusaders Training Barn Arson Damage

On Friday 26th August 2022 our 4G Training Barn that is used by the whole club, community groups and many other sports teams from all ages, was hit by an arson attack. The second such attack in two years.

This has devastated the Club and all it's members who work so hard to provide for so many.

Extensive damage has been suffered to the core of the structure as well as the 4G playing surface which will likely exceed £80k.

Whilst we are insured and are working hard to recover from the situation there will be lots of other costs that the Club will have to bear. Not least we now have to find alternative training facilities for all of our own teams and have lost what was a vital stream of income from external groups who paid to rent the barn.

The support and offers of help we have received so far from the wider community and Rugby League family has been overwhelming.

We have setup this page to try and help us cover some of these costs. Any donation you can make however small will be appreciated.
