Wales take in first Cricket kit donation
The LV= SOS Kit Aid Welsh regional directors took in their first donation of cricket kit this month along with two further major rugby kit donations.
A huge thank you goes to both Bridgend Cricket Club and Ebbw Vale Cricket Club for their very generous donations of cricket kit and we hope this is the first of many from the Welsh region.
October also saw two major rugby kit donations in Wales, with Newbridge RFC and Pontypool Juniors the latest to give their unwanted rugby kit to LV= SOS Kit Aid and help provide youngsters in the UK and overseas with the opportunity to exercise and play sport.
LV= SOS Kit Aid would like to welcome a new volunteer to the Wales region, Nick Pepper. From Ebbw Vale, Nick is a keen sportsman and has played football rugby and cricket for teams in the local area.
