UK Charity Number: 1210225
WHO WE ARE
A UK registered charity which delivers netball at grassroots level to children in some of the least developed regions of the world
We use netball as a tool to bring communities together, where we deliver health'awareness.
We work in schools and communities in less developed countries, allowing children the freedom to play and have fun. We work with them to help young people become players, leaders, coaches and officials of the future.
We introduce the game of netball to boys and girls who lack access to sports facilities, opportunities, kit and equipment. The relationships they build with the coaches, then allows the delicate subjects, usually around sexual health, to be discussed.
Our programmes run throughout the year, led by our wonderful volunteers, predominantly in Ghana, Kenya and Uganda. We have partners working hard in Pakistan, though the UK team has less contact with the team there.
We regularly take a tour party to visit the projects to upskill the volunteers, and celebrate the team's success.
