The Armchair Club is run entirely by volunteers, and every penny we raise goes straight back out to sportsmen and women in and around Mansfield. Since 1982 we have put more than £350,000 into local sport — helping with kit, coaching, travel and competition costs that families and small clubs would otherwise struggle to meet.
Ways you can help
Make a donation
A one-off gift or a regular donation goes directly into our grants fund. Because the Armchair Club Sports Foundation has charitable status, we can make your donation go further. Get in touch and we will tell you exactly where your money ends up.
Sponsor an event
Our golf day, swimathon and Sports Recognition Awards all offer sponsorship opportunities, from hole sponsorship through to headline backing of an evening. It is good exposure locally, and it funds a lot of grants.
Come to an event
The simplest way to help is to turn up. Every ticket sold, raffle entered and length swum adds to the pot. Our events are open to everyone.
Donate a raffle or auction prize
If you run a local business and can offer a prize, it costs you little and reliably raises a great deal on the night.
Talk to us
However you would like to help, the best next step is a conversation. We are a small group of local people and we answer our own emails.
