26 Sep 2023: Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting 29th October 2023

North Midlands Powerlifting on Instagram: "Have you thought about trying powerlifting…… But then remembered that you get nervous in front of people, and anxious about hearing your name broadcast out loud. Or are just feeling overwhelmed with starting out with all the experinced lifters around you? We want you to experience a real competition where, the only accommodations made are in atmosphere and not with the rules. We at North Midlands Powerlifting,in partnership with @shawmind_ (our focus Zone and Mental wellness partners) want to give everyone an opportunity for a fantastic first competition. We are holding a special, inclusive competition where you can experience all of the challenges of lifting in a comp, with refs and commands but without the unnecessary hype that we know can take some getting used to. North Midlands recognises that barriers exist to people trying lifting and we want to see those challenges dismantled. If you are a lifter or know a lifter who would benefit from this “first comp” experience, let us know. Our competition on the 11th March will be our first in the series of Quiet Focus competitions."North Midlands Powerlifting shared a post on Instagram: "Have you thought about trying powerlifting…… But then remembered that you get nervous in front of people, and anxious about hearing your name broadcast out loud.
