Youth Sports Equipment Scheme
This project directly addresses local youth deprivation by supplying essential sports equipment—including football boots, training balls, team bibs, and bats—to children living on our Garw Valley estates. By lowering the financial barrier to play, we encourage physical well-being, reduce anti-social behavior, and bring communities together. Items will be distributed via localised community pop-ups, estate activity days, and youth focus groups.
Low-income children and teenagers aged 5–16 living across social housing estates in the Garw Valley. Many face financial barriers to joining mainstream sports teams due to the high upfront cost of necessary kits, boots, and personal equipment.
Direct youth recipients of footwear, clothing, or kit bags.
New children equipped or supported during yearly rollouts.
