Alive & Kicking is our December social enterprise of the month.

Having met the team from Alive and Kicking at the SEUK awards in November it seemed apt to showcase their work in our social enterprise of the month feature.

Who are they?
Alive a Kicking have been making durable balls since 2004.  Since then they have made over 700,000 sports balls and each one has given someone, somewhere the chance to play, earn a wage and learn.

Where are they?
UK based charity working in Ghana, Kenya and Zambia.
 
What they do?
They make durable sports balls in Kenya, Zambia and Ghana, keeping adults in employment, helping children play, and raising health awareness through sport.
 
Making the balls keep 140 people in Nairobi, Lusaka and Accra in full-time work.

Why do we like them?
  • Brilliantly simple
  • Great social impact (you can donate a ball via their website)
  • The footballs are great, we know because we have one!

This site is very informative. I love people who loves adventure and who loves to explore things that have a risk. I know that the people that are born in this month are all special and they have these traits that makes them a special individual. I will ask my friends and I will know if these things are all correct.
