    Hoping you can all support this initiative which aims to get sports kit to all young people to help them participate whatever their circumstances, while also reducing waste. Hopefully the images make sense with the list of local drop off points. Streetgames have been involved in this in other localities and have worked with local partners to try and do the same here. Hope you can help.

    Good cause mate. Some kids and young people have nowt. A colleague's sister works as a teaching assistant in deepest, darkest Boro and I've heard some shocking stuff.

    Where are the drop offs? It doesn't show.

    Really good initiative that. There has been national ones for boots that I've seen before but great to see a local one. The younguns go through boots for fun when they are growing so fast, usually nowt the matter with the studs and they are hardly worn.

    it’s a shame this only winds til end of this month. I’ll be doing a clear out before I head up north for some time off in August- if anywhere is still open I could drop a couple of bin bags worth of kit somewhere.

    Drop me an inbox and I can probably sort something out with some of the organisations involved. This is a pilot we’re trying to leave behind so hopefully if all is well it’ll happen a couple of times a year.
