Friday 11th June - Let us Grow, near Jo'Burg

Well so far South Africa has been an amazing experience, from the excitement of the World Cup Finals to the inspirational children's projects we've been lucky enough to spend time with.

We were picked up from our guesthouse in Jo'burg at 9am by Sixolili and Joseph, staff at Oxfam and Let us Grow, for the 1 hour drive to Orange Farm. On the way we stopped at a sports shop to buy a sack of footballs - TACC's 30k grant had been transferred a few weeks earlier but we didn't want to turn up empty handed.

The Tartan Army Children’s Charity is proud to announce that the Scotland national team coach, Craig Levein, has agreed to become Patron of the charity.

Craig, pictured presenting the TACC Inspiration Award to Sean before leading the team to victory over the Czech Republic, was the unanimous and, indeed, only choice and we are delighted that he has accepted our invitation.

"The Tartan Army Children's Charity are terrific ambassadors for Scotland across the world. The work that they have done in Ukraine, Georgia, Macedonia and now South Africa has made a positive and tangible impact to the lives of disadvantaged children.

“It is also important to recognise the work they do for children in Scotland. The squad and the coaching staff are behind them every step of the way, and we encourage all Scotland fans to support them in their efforts."

The inaugural TACC Kiltwalk has raised over £100,000 and rising.
