Newbridge St Brigids - Who We Are
We are a group of Volunteers who help organise free events in part of Newbridge Parish. We are Parents, Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Teachers, Coaches. We work to encourage and facilitate local children to take part in their chosen hobby or sport.
We would absolutely love to hear from anyone who is interested in helping out.
You don't need to be a fully-fledged "coach" to help - call us to chat it through.
​
In keeping with the ethos of the National Community Games organisation, we focus on community spirit and co-operation, the big focus is on children's participation rather than winning. Whether a child is interested in Cycling or Debating, Model Making or Chess, Dancing or Rugby, Singing or Swimming, they should have the opportunity to take part and grow up understanding the positive impact this can have on your life.
