Plymouth Argyle Ladies making a difference this Christmas
Argyle Ladies are doing Secret Santa with a twist this year
Last updated 14th Dec 2020
Plymouth Argyle Ladies are hoping to make a difference to families in need this festive season.
The club have teamed up to create a food bank alongside the Oasis Project and hopefully make a positive impact for those in need.
Pilgrims star Beth Cowd has organised the Christmas donation from the squad:
"My motivation to do something around the food bank started when we left secret Santa too late and I felt that it was really important for the girls to replace this with a way to help other people.
"That’s when I thought it would be a good idea to donate to people in need, especially during this time, as many people have been made redundant from their jobs and are struggling to feed themselves and their families.
"I asked the girls if they would be up for it and all decided that they would be willing to make donations. All the food has been donated to the Plymouth food bank, which is also known as the Oasis Project.
"I intended to contact the food bank through their website, but then soon found out that one of the players amongst the squad is the manager. We dropped all the food to Jav Argyle Development squad captain Rachel Javan after our in-house game, so our work will take immediate effect."
