Children from Howell’s Junior School in Llandaff were visited by Sainsbury’s Chief Executive, Justin King last week when he personally delivered the first batch of sports equipment the school has redeemed through the Sainsbury’s Active Kids scheme.

The equipment will be a welcome addition to the school’s P.E. kit and is part of Sainsbury’s commitment to get Britain’s children more active and eating healthily.

Justin King said: “It was a real privilege to be able to deliver some of the Active Kids equipment to the children at Howell’s Junior School. It was great to meet the children and hear about the sports lessons they have at school. I’m sure that the equipment will be put to good use!”

Last year, Sainsbury’s donated more than £167,000 of equipment to schools, clubs and organizations in the Cardiff area.
