Help these Isle of Wight gymnasts reach their goal

Please help Isle of Wight gymnasts in their efforts to continue training at an elite level.

We are a small group of young competitive gymnasts who have achieved great success in the last few years winning medals at every competition attended across England and Wales, including regional grades and finals. We have also earned spaces in the Hampshire Squad which is a remarkable achievement given the limited training facilities available on the IOW. In April 2024 our coach left and the club decided no longer to offer competitive gymnastics at the level we need. This leaves us with nowhere to train at elite level on the IOW. We now have no choice but to travel to the mainland and 3 of us have secured places at Xcel gymnastics in Horndean, Portsmouth.

We estimate expenses for travel for training alone for 1 year will be around £8,000. To help us fulfil our potential we are asking for your help to support us to cover some of these costs. Thank you for reading this and for supporting us to achieve our dreams.

We really appreciate your support.
