The Trail Pot – National Mountain Biking Development Fund is open and we, as Trustees, are looking at a long somewhat uncertain road ahead of us as we navigate forming and running a successful charity.
It’s equal parts daunting and thrillingly exciting.
We’re doing this because we truly believe in what the mountain biking community can achieve and to give that community a real voice. The grassroots is where that passion exists, but in today’s world nothing really happens without money.
We’re aiming to create a pot of it, and we know how we can. We know how that money can be shared out. We know that everyone involved benefits. To say it’s a win:win feels cliched and a bit marketing speak – but look at the model and how we want to make this work, because The Trail Pot can really herald a change for mountain biking in the UK.
We may be naïve – The Trail Pot is a model built in true altruism at its heart – but we hope our supporters see that. Growth and development can only happen at the grassroots.
And that can now happen with the first charity dedicated to nurturing those grassroots.
We’re filling the pot right now. Please contribute – and if you can help in other ways we’d love to hear from you.
