This is a story from the SD archive – the FSF and SD merged to become the FSA in 2019.
Cambridge Fans United are busy working with the RAF on a project to help recyle old football shirts and kits. The trust is encouraging anyone with an old shirt to donate it to the appeal.
The RAF’s involvement in this sort of project has been historic and they have run appeals like this since since 2006, “… delivering over 172,000 items of football kit to 53 countries worldwide”.
CFU decided to partner with the RAF because:
“As part of the global football family [they] want to show that caring for others is part of the DNA of Cambridge Utd!”
The appeal ends on the 31st October, so if you can, please help them on their mission to collect as many shirts as possible.

Led by Anwar Uddin with our partners at Kick It Out, the Fans for Diversity campaign works in a number of ways to highlight the experiences of supporters from all walks of life and to make football a welcoming place for everyone. This can range from creating fan groups to hosting events, improving accessibility at grounds or education projects.
Earlier this summer, the ‘My Club, My Shirt’ photography initiative reached its second club – as AFC Wimbledon fans were captured by photographer Chris Floyd.
The breadth and diversity of Bristol Rovers’ fanbase is being celebrated in a new portrait exhibition created to mark the launch of the club’s new shirt – the latest club to participate in Fans for Diversity’s ‘My Club, My Shirt’ project.
Today Leeds United Football Club will be unveiling a Leeds Civic Trust Blue Plaque to honour Albert Johanneson ahead of the Derby County fixture.
