RuDRIDge in Farnham has donated over £100 of sports equipment to local children’s charity Challengers to encourage more young people to get active and celebrate football festivities and sporting events.
The team at the civil engineering and groundwork material specialist, located on Alton Road, donated a range of sports equipment including cones, speed ladders, passing arcs and water bottles to help children learn new skills and enhance their agility and co-ordination techniques.
Challengers is dedicated to providing exciting play and leisure opportunities for disabled children and young people between the ages of two to 25. Along with the benefits to children and young people, the charity gives families a short break during high pressure times and offers fun and safe environments for children and young people in local communities.
Susie Jewell, corporate partnerships manager at Challengers, said: “We have lots of activities for our young people to choose from and we will start offering sessions outside, so this equipment will help massively and will really add to our existing facilities.”
