Fiona Bruce MP Appointed Sport Cheshire Ambassador
Sport Cheshire have appointed Fiona Bruce MP to be a Sport Ambassador for the region.
Sport Cheshire is a charity with a key aim of increasing opportunities for people in Cheshire of whatever age to enjoy sport and improve their health and wellbeing. The organisation provides information, advice, kit and grants to local groups which over the past year has enabled 15,000 local people to enjoy sport within their own neighbourhood.
Fiona Bruce MP said:
“I am delighted to have been appointed to this role and look forward to supporting Sport Cheshire in its important work across the county.
Among the exciting local projects I am currently working hard to promote is the development of the former Manchester Metropolitan University site at Alsager into a comprehensive local sports facility which will provide the opportunity for thousands of local people to enjoy a wide variety of sports both indoor and outdoor right on their doorstep. Another is the ‘Twin Assassins Campaign’ being energetically spearheaded by Olympic silver and gold medallist Ann Packer and her husband Cllr Robbie Brightwell of Congleton who are working to develop facilities at Eaton Bank Academy as a sport and health wellbeing life centre for the community.”
