‘In line with Government guidance, Ashbrooke Sports Club is closed until further notice and no access to the club is possible. We will update this website and members as soon as that position changes. We are seeking to co-operate with initiatives to support the local effort to combat the impact of Covid-19 and members may wish to know that we have contributed the two defibrillators we have on site paid for by donations from the Bowls section and The Strollers, to the request by Sunderland City Council for sports clubs to release equipment which is currently not needed on their sites. We trust all associated with the Club are doing everything they can to keep themselves safe and we will see you all once this situation has been overcome’.
