Story

It has been a tough year for everyone but for charities who raise money to help others, it has been an even tougher year.

The Greenock Wanderers Ladies Rugby Team have been participating in a three week fitness challenge, where with one week left, we have already covered 3417.35kms by walking, running or cycling. We will finish our challenge by hosting our very own Santa Dash in Gourock on Sunday the 13th of December. 

All proceeds raised will go directly to helping the children in Inverclyde, through the fantastic charity "Children in Poverty Inverclyde" .

Thank you from the Greenock Wanderers Ladies Team x 

About the charity

1000 children in Inverclyde will not have a holiday, not be clothed properly and feel marginalised. Britain is the sixth largest economy in the world with more millionaires than ever,so why have 330,000 food parcels been handed out to hungry children, with Inverclyde accounting for 4000 of these parcels. It’s time to think Mission statement: Tackle Child Poverty Promote Equality Stimulate Children Encourage Participation Poverty can have a profound impact on the child, their family, and the rest of society. It often sets in motion a deepening spiral of social exclusion, creating problems in education, employment, mental and physical health and social interaction.
