"there has only ever been one perfect man, the Lord Jesus, and we killed him. I only missed a putt."

Berhard Langer on the 1991 Ryder Cup

FA Kit

About 10 years ago a throw-away line in a conversation at the Football Association, led to me receiving a quantity of surplus new football kit which could be used in needy countries around the world. Over the years I have received kit from the FA at least a further 10 times - plus kit from British Athletics on several occasions - an estimated 25,000 items.

Working in partnership with other sports and relief agencies we have been able to get kit to:
