Our youth players show the way forward

Sunday, March 10th, saw Kent U20’s open their National Championship campaign with a pool match against last season’s finalists Hampshire at Tunbridge Wells RFC.

In difficult conditions, Kent ran out victors by 17-3.

Ambulances for the Ukraine update

Thanks to the efforts of Dave Thompson, our principal sponsor and Managing Director of Marine Travel, our own fundraising efforts, and support, plus other clubs across the country such as Marine AFC, 3 ambulances have been procured and driven to Krakow where they were handed over for medical duty in the Ukraine conflict. This amazing effort has been recognised by the Ukraine armed forces with one high-ranking military unit commander sending a personal message thanking Marine Travel and Canterbury for all they have done to ensure the vital equipment could be delivered to where it was needed most, the front line.

The command of Military Unit *****, which defends Ukraine from the aggressor, expresses its sincere gratitude to the community of the City of Canterbury and the head of Marine Travel company, David Thompson, from Great Britain, for the provided ambulances that will save the lives of the defenders of Ukraine! Our real brothers are the Bristish! Slava Ukraine!!!

A massive thank you to everybody who gave generously in funds and time to make this happen and shows how humanitarian efforts can transcend political aggression.
