Storm To Support Precious Lives Appeal

Storm Netball Club has announced its support for the Precious Lives Appeal which is being run by the Children's Hospice South West.

 
 

The Storm girls will be out in the community in the New Year raising money for the new appeal being held by the Children's Hospice South West.

The Precious Lives Appeal is being run with the aim to raise enough money to build a Children's Hospice in Cornwall.

The Children's Hospice South West already has two hugely successful hospices at Little Bridge House in Devon and Charlton Farm in Bristol now it's hoping to build one in Cornwall.

"We've been talking for a while about supporting a Cornish charity." explained Storm Coach David White.

"With the club launching brand new Under 16 and Under 12 teams this season we felt we wanted to support a children's charity and the creation of a Hospice in Cornwall is a perfect cause."

When a couple, who wish to remain anonymous, found out about Storm's intentions
they made a donation to the club enabling all the girls to wear warm up shirts emblazoned with the Precious Lives logo.

"We're ever so grateful to the mystery couple." said Club Captain Sharon Teague. "We hope we can raise plenty of money over the course of the season and next summer."

Mary Murfin from the Children's Hospice South West is pleased to have the support of the club. "We are delighted to have the support of Storm Netball Club in Redruth, it is wonderful when community groups and people of all ages join together to support local charities such as Children’s Hospice South West."

"We are delighted that the girls would like to wear our Children’s Hospice South West Precious Lives Appeal logo on their shirts in support of our appeal to build a children’s hospice service in Cornwall, this will really help spread the word."

"We wish them every success in their tournaments this season."

Studs Sports in Newquay have kindly agreed to logo all the Under 12's shirts free of charge in support of the Appeal.
