SALE: Purple SoYo Polo Co t-shirts - proceeds to charity

Purple SoYo Polo Co t-shirts for £20 (+£1 for post)

WHY PURPLE? The poloverze lost a gorgeous and fun member and a good friend recently under tragic circumstances. Viki played bike polo in Birmingham for two years - she played at UK tourneys as well at last year's Hells Bells. She also came to visit us in Sheffield multiple times, winning our local trophy for 'dick moves' last February. At last year's Cliffhanger she played on team 'Banana Space Rockets' in a purple T-shirt, downing multiple of the similarly called cocktails and still 'kicking ass'. To remember her sense of fun and love for this colour (referring to the Gogol Bordello song), we have printed this year's SoYo Polo Co t-shirts in purple. The proceeds go to the charity she worked at called the National Institute for Conductive Education (NICE) in Birmingham. They work with disabled adults using conductive pedagogy and are currently raising money for their work.

HOW TO ORDER? Message us at soyopoloco at yahoo.com with the following information: size of t-shirt AND postal address or pick up point/time. We'll then send you the details for payment methods and will post your t-shirt to you (or arrange for delivery).

Here is how we're doing so far & what sizes are left: google sheet on sales

EVENT ALERT the Birmingham lot are organising a throw in day and BBQ to remember Viki on the 2nd of August. (FB event) We'll happy to bring you the t-shirt here if you're around!

I'll take one. Emailing now.

Shirt arrived today - beautiful. Will wear. Thanks.

We have very few T-shirts left, so we chucked last year's yellow ones at the pile. Viki's birthday is on the 21st of August, I'll send the charity money over to NICE on that day. It would be great to reach the £500 mark - place your orders quick!

Purple: XL, L, ladies M
Yellow: 2 x S, L

Thank you to all - I've sent £500 to NICE, Birmingham where Viki worked. Today is her birthday and I thought this would be a great way to remember her. And how does this donation make a difference? From the NICE website:

£100 could pay for an adult with Parkinson’s to attend our “Write BIG” project, helping them to improve their writing skills, a vital skill often lost as a result of the condition

£250 could help subsidise funding for an adult for one year

£500 could provide 10 free sessions for an adult

This is from the email response:

"Thank you for donating to the Foundation for Conductive Education which is a leading UK charity based at the National Institute of Conductive Education working to improve the lives of children and adults with neurological motor disorders. Your donations literally transforms lives. Thank you for your generosity."
