support the pavilion project
We ran a crowdfunding campaign in July 2018 and reached our target of £5,000 in a little over three weeks.
You can still donate via this crowdfunding site by clicking on the “donate now” link although the many rewards we offered during the campaign are now all sold out. However, we still need your active support and all donations are welcome.
Sponsorship Opportunities
The Pavilion Project offers many sponsorship opportunities for both business and grant-giving bodies. There are many levels of sponsorship available to suit all business objectives and budgets. These include opportunities associated with significant parts of the building - be it sponsoring the central communal hub, changing-room wings, viewing terraces or the service wing - and smaller items such as the scoreboards; furniture for inside and outside; the weather vane; kitchen equipment; sanitary ware etc.Currently, 15.3million people play sport once a week, every week; an increase of 1.4 million following the London 2012 Olympics.
There are over 150,000 grassroots sports clubs, with 8 million regular participants in the UK. Supporting grassroots sport is an ideal opportunity to raise profiles and play a key part in the local community. Already The Pavilion Project has attracted considerable media interest including numerous articles in the Hampshire Chronicle, the architectural press and has featured on local TV news; we expect this to increase.
Benefits to sponsors
