Adam Church-Millward, Marketing Manager at Scimitar, delivered the fantastic news to the charity and said: “Having established a leading reputation for developing sportswear & promotional items for charities across the UK, the competition was seen as a way of giving something back to an important, fund-reliant sector.
“For over thirty years, Starlight Children’s Foundation have done marvellous things to brighten the lives of poorly children, and they are certainly a charity deserving of the £2,018 credit. We hope the prize will allow Starlight to raise more than ever for their extremely worthwhile, important cause”.

Brightening lives
After hearing of the win for their charity, Rachel Marsh, Sports and Challenges Fundraiser at Starlight Children’s Foundation, said: “It’s fantastic to have won £2,018 of Scimitar credit. This money will go towards our next sportswear order and help kit out our wonderful fundraisers who are doing all kinds of amazing challenges to help us brighten the lives of seriously ill children.”
Having worked with national & local charities throughout the UK, the charity competition was seen as a way of giving something back to an important, self-sustained sector. Over the past few years, the Scimitar team have worked tirelessly to develop premium sportswear & promotional items tailored for fundraisers.
With over 500 charities entering the competition over the summer (big and small) the concept was extremely well received and is likely to return again next summer.
