Get Your Kit On for charity
Motability is gearing up for the launch of its 2007 'Get Your Kit On' campaign. The campaign kicks off on Wednesday 12th September - the same day as the England v Russia Euro 2008 qualifier match. Everyone can join in by wearing their team's football shirt at home, work or school and donating £1 to Motability to help people with disabilities get mobile. Individuals, companies and schools across the UK are invited to take part and to get as many people involved as possible. Further details and a free fundraising pack are available now from Aine Canavan at Motability by telephoning 01279 632258 or emailing ainec@motability.co.uk. The fundraising pack can also be downloaded from the Motability website: www.motability.co.uk. The campaign is being backed by a whole host of celebrities, including the football legend and commentator/presenter, Ian Wright: "I've played for England and I know that when the pressure's on supporters are important. Why not cheer our boys on and wear your England shirt with pride on Wednesday 12th September to support Motability as well as the England Team. All you need to do is donate £1 to Motability and wear your football shirt for the day. Try to get people at work or school involved too so that we can all support England and Motability together!" Rebecca Lowe, Sports Presenter and Reporter for Setanta Sports is also supporting the campaign. She says: "What a great excuse to wear your footie shirt, knowing at the same time that the money you raise will go a long way to help others. And your fundraising really will help - every penny and every pound. Please do your bit - go Get Your Kit On!!" Motability's Fundraising and Marketing Director, Hazel Gotfraind explains: "All the donations from the 'Get Your Kit On' campaign will make a real difference. A car can provide the independence a disabled person needs to go to school, work, college or simply pop out to the shops, rather than having to rely on friends and family for everyday needs."
