I am located in Cramlington in Northumberland and seeking funding for a idea that I have had for a few years.

What I would like to to is allow the local area to learn many different martial arts for free, I have approached many of my martial arts friends that are willing to teach for free, but the down side is using the local sports centre, they charge a fee fir use of there room, this would allow people of all ages to learn something new, meat people and improve there health, I know many of the UK top martial artists have stopped teaching because it was costing them to teach, and although they love to teach, like most would not want to cost them for this privilege.

In my area and surrounding ones there seems to be many kids hanging round the streets with nothing to do, this kind of idea could give these kids a focus, many have done similar things with boxing, I see problems in the area not just anti social behavior and I also see a solution.

Hope some one can give some constructive advice.
