Project Club House

Dear Club Members past and present and friends of the club

Support The Oaks: Project Club House

One of the key highlights of 2021 at Sevenoaks Town FC has been the successful planning application for a new club house.

As a FA England Accredited club in the heart of our local community, this new clubhouse will enable our club to enhance the playing experience for over 60 teams including 54 youth sides including three girls’ teams, seven adult teams including a women’s and four disability sides. It also means the club can explore new opportunities to offer even more to those across the community, providing a first-class facility to serve as a base for people of all ages and abilities.

To help reach these ambitions, we need your help. This is our biggest team effort to date.

We have engaged with Offset Architects to help make our clubhouse happen. Offset Architects are looking to appoint across several services and we would like to engage with our huge club network to offer you the chance to put your business or associated contacts forward for consideration.

If you work in any of these professions or maybe you know someone who does then please feel free to complete this Google form: https://forms.gle/GNz2HzaeXXgDaLvu6

Offset will then be in contact to discuss the project in more detail.

Funding

In order to make our vision a reality, we estimate a project build of circa £1.5 million. Whilst initially a daunting figure, we believe drawing together our club network and pulling together as a team, we will be able to explore different funding options to not only build our club house but create a legacy for the local area.

The club is exploring a number of different funding options and appeals to you. If you have fundraising expertise, experience or can support Sevenoaks Town FC is growing our roots further, then we would love to hear from you.

Below is a list of options the club is currently exploring:

• Large and small Donors

• Loan option, similar to the 3G loan scheme we operated

• Fundraising

• Football Foundation

• Local grants

• Building services
