Gordano Sharks bag donations
On Saturday 21 December, members of the Under 12s Gordano Sharks rugby team spent three hours bag-packing at Waitrose in Portishead to raise funds for the club and for local charity, Children’s Hospice South West.
Duncan, one of the team’s dedicated coaches, said: “It was a pleasure to give something back and the boys loved raising money for the charity which has for many years supported our honorary player, Freddie, and his family.”
Thirty percent of the total raised was donated to CHSW, which amounted to a wonderful £212.19.
Emma Parker, Community Fundraiser at CHSW said: “We’d like to thank all the Under 12s players and coaches for supporting their local children’s hospice as well as Waitrose customers who very generously donated. We were absolutely bowled over to hear how much was raised.”
