Fundraiser Jason Slack told Middleton Today: "The money raised by the event will help a youth club in one of the poorest districts of the third largest city in Kenya to run sports and leisure activities as well as teach street teenagers vocational skills which will help them out of poverty and into employment."

Hunslet Club Chief Executive Dennis Robbins traveled to Kenya with a local businessman who is generously funding many of the Kisumu clubs' costs and is keen to both raise funds and share expertise with his counterparts in the African nation.

"The spirit of these kids being brought up in a very different world to ours was inspirational and they really deserve the opportunities to enjoy sports, learn skills and have fun in the same way that we do here," said Dennis.
