Chernobyl Children's evening with Keynsham Lions

We are delighted to have been able to work with Keysnham Lions to provide tennis and softball activities as part of their BBQ evening at Saltford Hall.

As well as providing tennis coaching to six children we also provided a game of softball which was held on the field which included host families and volunteers. The children really enjoyed their evening which was voted a great success by all involved.

The 16 children are staying in Bristol for a month with host families through the Chernobyl Children’s Lifeline charity. This charity has been running for about 30 years and was set up following the aftermath of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in April 1986. The website www.ccll.org.uk/bristol has more information and includes a gallery link page to see all the activities that they have enjoyed.
