The club based at the Gunsmiths was chosen as the recipient of the prize after entering RGB Building Supplies’ Well Built Community Fund.

Nikki Heaney, a trustee of Swallows, said: “It can sometimes be difficult to raise the money to cover essential repairs and refurbishments that we need to do, so we would like to say a big thank you to RGB Building Supplies and we are absolutely delighted to have won the community fund.”
