Collection for Ukrainian Humanitari­an Aid:

To support internatio­nal aid efforts for the people of Ukraine, Kenfig Hill Rugby Football Club has become one of several drop-off points for humanitari­an aid across South Wales, with an extraordin­arily generous response already from the local community.

All donated items must be in good, clean condition and examples include wet wipes, nappies (all sizes), Calpol, Sudocream, dummies, personal hygiene products and toiletries such as sanitary towels, deodorant, toothpaste, soap, shampoo etc, paracetamo­l, all first-aid kit essentials like plasters, bandages, antiseptic cream etc, thermal hats and gloves, torches, batteries and candles.

Please, no clothes, shoes or food will be taken until further notice. Many thanks.
