What it's all about
[b]The idea:[/b]
[i]A chairty fundraiser for Spinal Research, basically, a kids day where they come and play games! [/i]
Children; of primary school age, would come to the event and just play active games for a whole day.
[b]Coming to playing games, [/b]not the regular football, basketball etc, but [b]things like steal the balls, Octopus tag, dodge ball etc[/b]. These games would form the fundamentals of mainstream sports, but in a fun setting. There would be small scale competition, but not in such a serious sporting way. The games would incorporate aspects from sports but are less rigid and formal for younger kids who would learn that activities and exercise are fun!
[i]Each child would be asked to bring a ball (with their own name on), of any sort, which would then be used during the day.[/i]
A few organisations have already been contacted for raffle prizes.

As you are a student at Nottingham Trent University you can get up to £750 in funding and support from me, the Volunteer Support Worker!
Sounds like a fab idea! Can't wait to meet you to find out more and hopefully get you started.
I'm in the Soap Station on Thursdays and Fridays - it would be great if you could pop in for a chat when you are free.
