From junior matches to senior kick-offs, it was all to play for at this year’s Soccer Aid Safari. It was an excellent opportunity for the local community to come together and get the ball rolling (literally!) for a great cause. This year’s event motto was “bigger and better” after listening to feedback from last year. From face painting and music to competitions, amazing food and even bouncy castles, the day was an inclusive, family event that brought the community together - with a whole lot of football!![Soccer-Aid-Safari-2024-The\_Vanessa-Grant-Trust-team-photo](https://insights.fluidbranding.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Soccer-Aid-Safari-2024-The_Vanessa-Grant-Trust-team-photo.jpg?width=460&height=280&name=Soccer-Aid-Safari-2024-The_Vanessa-Grant-Trust-team-photo.jpg) Overall, the event raised a total of £25,000 for the Vanessa Grant Trust and Cornwall Hospice Care. ### ![soccer aid volunteers 2024](https://insights.fluidbranding.com/hs-fs/hubfs/soccer%20aid%20volunteers%202024.png?width=360&height=190&name=soccer%20aid%20volunteers%202024.png)    ![soccer aid merchandise 2024](https://insights.fluidbranding.com/hs-fs/hubfs/soccer%20aid%20merchandise%202024.png?width=360&height=190&name=soccer%20aid%20merchandise%202024.png)   ### The Vanessa Grant Trust The Vanessa Grant Trust is an educational charity based in the rural community of Rongai, Kenya.
