From: David Dodgeon, SOS Kit Aid Representative for North and East Devon, Cornwall.

KIT Aid SOS are delighted to advise that for the first time in 24 years of SOS meeting/exceeding its annual delivery targets – that we have met our annual 2025 target of 40 big kit deliveries, three months early – at the end of Q3!

Our delivery schedule includes some exciting new destinations in Q3 including; Mali, Venezuela, Zambia, Costa Rica, Zimbabwe, Armenia and Madagascar.

Also, in Q3, we delivered 500 new Gilbert rugby balls to Venezuela on behalf of World Rugby, and we are looking to expand this facility still further in 2026.

The reason we can reach and exceed our targets is because of the help we receive from all our wonderful sponsors/supporters: Roy Marfleet, Jim Gibson MD Big Yellow Storage; John Moores at Halbro Sportswear and D.B Schenker Transport and, of course, to the RFU who gave us another marvelous large kit donation this quarter.

Thank you all, you are making a real difference!
