The more money we raise, the more young people we can reach. A one-off or regular donation makes a huge difference to our work. Click our donation page here to make an online gift or set up a monthly donation.
If you’re sporty, in the UK over the summer, you could take part in one of our famous football marathons putting your love of football to the ultimate test, playing 6-a-side in a mass twelve hour tournament. We have marathons around the country, so visit our Football Marathons page to find your nearest one. We’re also always looking for volunteer physiotherapists and first aiders at the marathons! If you can help, email charlie.gamble@tackleafrica.org
