Volunteers / Sport Makers
Volunteers are at the heart of sport; without them sport across Cheshire and Warrington would not take place. Cheshire & Warrington Sports Partnership understand the difficulties experienced at all levels of sport, whether it be club, county or national, in the recruitment and retention of volunteers. We recognize the importance of volunteers and that the volunteer workforce needs to be recognized for their efforts; we can celebrate our volunteers through the Cheshire & Warrington Sports Partnership Awards Evening.
