Sporting Challenge has won £4000 funding from Tesco's 'Bags of Help' scheme.
Funding raised by the carrier bag charge at Tesco stores is used for grants to improve local parks, hold community events, support sports groups and much more.
The grants are managed by the community charity Groundwork UK; customers who purchase a carry bag are awarded with a token, and deposit it into one of three voting boxes.
Over a two month voting period at Tesco, Burscough Bridge, Sporting Challenge came first to win the award.
