Story

“No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of others”.

We are putting our love of football to the ultimate test this summer by entering one of Tackle's Football Marathons - a unique fundraising event. Tackle uses the power and popularity of football to deliver HIV and Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights information and services to young people on football pitches across Sub-Saharan Africa.

The event is a 12 hour football tournament where the average player can expect to run over 40km. The other players helping form our 8 person team are; Dean Archer, Nick Robinson, Matt Gough, Lucas O’Driscoll, Ryan Moon, Mike Gray, and Adam Brettell.

To those able to donate towards our efforts to lighten the burden of others, we thank you.
