Players bowled over by support
31st March 2015

There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a project come to fruition, according LISTERS TRADE FRAMES, especially when it benefits so many people. The Stoke on Trent fabricator joined forces with other local businesses to help local crown green bowlers rejuvenate their dilapidated clubhouse.

Middleport Bowling Club had long since lost local council support was being funded by the patrons themselves, many of whom were pensioners. The 40-year-old building was falling to pieces around their heads until Listers and local construction companies Novus and Seddons joined the cause to help renovate the clubhouse free of charge.

“It was a real team effort,” said Listers Commercial Sales Manager Dave Allen, “and when Novus asked us to get involved, we didn’t hesitate.

 “The windows and doors were rotting and a few of them had been smashed. It was a real shame to see the standards that these pensioners were having to work with. Our input was to sort out fitting new windows and doors as a matter of urgency.”

Listers Marketing Manager Daniel Shaw added: “It was a real team effort and everyone involved has done an amazing job. To see the end result is so gratifying and we’ve also been challenged by the team to a bowling match. So at least we’ll have somewhere warm and dry to be when we inevitably lose!”
