BACK TO BALLYSILLAN


Our Regional Coordinator, Janet Neville and Derrick (KitAid Founder) visited the Football Camp in Ballysillan, Belfast that KitAid has formed a strong link with over the last few years.

"Another amazing visit and even though this is my third consecutive trip, once again I left with a feeling of awe and admiration for the brilliant work Pete and his team do. Football Camp really does mean so much to the kids and to all of the volunteers (about 30 in total) who help out all through the week", said Derrick.

"I also met an amazing guy from a charity we gave kit to last year - Kids Alive. Alistair is a teacher at Carrickfergus High School and they recently collected a load of shirts for us. We split them between Kids Alive and Mission Africa, another Belfast based charity who will take them out to Nigeria."

KitAid would like to say a huge thank you to Janet's in-laws who donated money from their Ruby Wedding Party and wish Pete and the team every success in raise the £300k to get moving on their new building.
