The Rotary Club of Bognor Hotham is supporting Bognor Regis RFC, with club president Nigel Neville presenting a £500 cheque for essential rugby equipment.

The funding will help provide rugby kits, including shirts, socks and boots, for children who require additional support.

Any remaining funding will go towards rugby balls, which have been made by Bognor RFC for the last few years but are now in need of replacement.

Bognor RFC is a non-profit rugby club that is open to people of all abilities. It says it believes everyone should be given the chance to play – regardless of age, background or gender.

The club also aims to ensure that people experiencing financial difficulties are able to get involved, offering support to families who cannot afford membership.

The rotary club says it is “proud to support organisations such as Bognor RFC, whose work helps make sport accessible, encourages participation and provides valuable opportunities for young people in the local community.”
