Hi All,
I play for Eccleston Lions and we have previously done some work for the Cancer Research Charity raising £2000 by having a race night. We have now been speaking to the Lilac Centre at St.Helens Hospital who do excellent work for patients with Cancer. We have now been asked by the Lilac Centre to help promote them and raise awareness. One way we are doing this is to don a Full Pink Kit for next season (2011-12) and having the Lilac Centre as the main shirt sponsor. The reason I am posting on here is to see if anyone can assist. The kit is going to cost in the region of £1000 so we are looking for donations, this can either be in the way of an individual who is feeling generous! Or Primarily Local Businesses, who may be willing to provide us with £100 towards the kit by possibly sponsoring the Collar, Back of the top or sleeves. Any help would be much appreciated, if anyone wishes to help or ask anything further you can either post on here or send me a PM and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Many Thanks for reading.

Very noble thing of you boys to do, just out of interest and if you don't mind me asking, but who have you gone to for your kits because that seems very steep for a kit?

No that's no problem at all. Were with Kukiri, they made our current kit and it's good quality so we've stuck with them.

Good luck with your sponsorship mate, at what age group do you play?

We have just had a quote off o'neils for a kit which should cost around about £600 including all logos etc(very good quality also.......and no I do not work for them!!).

May be worth a look elswhere other than your current supplier, sounds costly.
