Representatives from Erewash Valley Gymnastics Club were presented with their third place award by CCPR President HRH The Earl of Wessex during a ceremony in London.

CCPR Chief Executive Tim Lamb said: “Erewash Valley Gymnastics Club is a great example of what a community club can achieve and this award is testament to the incredibly hard work put in by those who run it.

“As well as long hours in the committee room or coaching youngsters, the people who run this club have also provided expertise. That means that it provides a great service to its members and opens up sporting opportunities for the whole community.

“It’s quite an accolade to be selected for a prize from amongst the 150,000 community sports clubs across the UK and Erewash can be very proud of its achievement.”
