Police kickstart Uckfield Judo Club fund
Terry Bate, coach and treasurer said: "We're a small club run for young people and this donation allows us to improve our training surface. It's great that the police can support us this way."
The donation comes from the Police Property Act Fund (PPAF), made up of monies received by the police from property confiscated by order of the court and then sold.

Some of the Uckfield Judo Club have gone on to represent their county and country and we are happy to support the club with a donation."
