Gipton Juniors FC

Eddisons has adopted Gipton Juniors FC as their main charity of the year for 2012. Organiser Victor White started out helping a handful of children stay out of trouble by teaching them football skills and now looks after a group of about 150! The children involved are often from difficult backgrounds with family problems as a result of drink, drugs or violence. The club tries to instil genuine values to steer the youths away from unhealthy lifestyles and to help steer a better path in life. Victor, says:

‘’Gipton Juniors provides a safe, controlled environment for children of the local area to come and train, learn discipline, have an escape and become a part of a team. We are over the moon that Eddisons want to support us”
