We are really pleased to soon be entering into our first official partnership with a Premier League team. We do get support from quite a few PL clubs, but this will the first long term partnership. It has come about thanks to the support of the Everton Heritage Society who promoted us to the club […]
Aside from receiving lots of kit and holding boxing up sessions, we also attended the highly successful Watford FC Open Day where we received a lot of great kit and met supporters and players. We were helped by the ex WFC and Scotland international, Ikechi Anya, re-tweeting some of our requests for kit to his […]
Well done to the guys from the Airdrieonians Supporters Trust who have collected 1,000 shirts so far this year at the launch of their ingenious season ticket for a shirt campaign. They have also promoted the kit amnesty across all of the schools in North Lanarkshire, which will potentially give KitAid access to over […]
One of the things that I really love about KitAid is the way we manage to transport kit across the world via a fascinating route of volunteers all doing their bit. I think the following story of just one kit donation really highlights this and I think it would make a brilliant film story. […]
We were very fortunate to be invited to this event thanks to our partnership with Hertfordshire FA. The celebration was held at Homestead Court Hotel in Welwyn Garden City as this is where the West German team stayed before the final at Wembley. The England team also used it as a base during the early […]
KitAid has officially come of age and it was celebrated at the recent boxing up session in Hatfield on 2 July with a birthday cake and a small glass of Prosecco for everyone. It was also great on the day to reach a new milestone of 350,000 items of kit sent out since 1998, which […]
We’re very sad to say that our storage container was broken into again and this time it was a targeted attack as nothing else in the yard was touched. A few months ago the same criminals broke into it and stole some boxes of mainly second hand kit. Each time they cause damage to the […]
You may remember that last year that we ring fenced the fantastic donation received from Ashley Judge’s 24 Hour Premier League ground challenge, so that it could be used for a special project in Guy’s memory. We are pleased to have now found and agreed between all parties, a great project in Zambia to use […]
Following receipt of some really great photos from Ismail Jama, we posted them on to Facebook and Twitter and they very quickly got noticed by a journalist writing for Wales Online as there were some of Cardiff City kits. This is a much viewed website, especially in Wales(!), and we received some follow up contacts […]
We have sponsored the week long footy camp once again this year, and as I say every year, this is the most inspiring project in our annual calendar. If anyone would like to make the annual trip to Belfast in late July please conatct us at kitaid@affinitywater.co.uk. We always have a brilliant time, not only […]
