Miners Welfare and CISWO[edit]

The article suggests that CISWO provided the land for the Miners Welfare. This is incorrect as CISWO didn't exist until 1952. The land was purchased by the Miners themselves. This is what led to the controversy of CISWO claiming ownership. Please correct the article. 92.7.104.184 (talk) 18:53, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Can you supply references to support this? Keith D (talk) 23:51, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article at http://num.org.uk/home/welfare/ provides an outline of the history of CISWO - it did not exist until 1952.

As to claims about ownership of mining rec land, that is also not correct. Land for mining rec grounds was either (a) owned by and rented from the industry, or (b) bought with welfare fund money and settled on charitable trust. The welfare fund money was from levies on coal production and mineral royalties - it wasn't paid for by miners themselves. In the 1990s, when the NCB was abolished, the recs they owned were given to CISWO. CISWO have also taken over some of the charity grounds (and that might include Dinnington) but those transfers were sanctioned by the Charity Commission in accordance with charity law. 80.0.24.82 (talk) 12:30, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
