WIMBLEDON IN
SPORTING HISTORY (WiSH)

FROM TENNIS TO FOOTBALL AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN…

As proud Wimbledon locals we are very excited and grateful to be a supplier to WiSH for design, print and installation work.

WiSH is an independent registered charity (1195829) and registered musuem ( I-112603) that was created to inspire its visitors through sporting history and is run by 24 inducted volunteers.

The Common Ground film has demonstrated that Wimbledon Common provided a unique sporting landscape for a number of global sports. It also instigated the greatest story in the world’s most popular sport – football.

WiSH has accessed over £1 million in sporting memorabilia, some of which is showcased at their exhibition in Plough Lane. Moreover, a digital museum will also be launched in 2022.

“Safeguard, curate, celebrate and showcase Wimbledon’s sporting heritage and cultural stories, plus those of other local sports and their cultural influence.”
