At Cardiff City FC Community Foundation, we believe in the power of football to bring people together and improve lives. We're committed to making football accessible to everyone, and we’re calling on our supporters to help us recycle and reuse footwear to support the next generation of players.

We’re collecting donations of football boots, trainers, and shin pads in all sizes—children and adults—whether new or pre-loved.

By giving these items a second life, you’ll be helping us ensure more young people can take part in the game they love.

The donated footwear will be distributed by our Community Foundation team to schools and community groups, ensuring they reach young people and families who will benefit most.

In all sizes - children and adult – we are looking for new or used donations of:

• Football boots
• Astroturf trainers
• Shin pads

You can find our donation bins at any of the following locations:

• Cardiff City Stadium Reception (CF11 8AZ)
• Cardiff City House of Sport (CF11 8AW)
• Grange Pavillion (CF11 7LJ)

If you don’t have any spare kit lying around but still want to support this initiative, you can text ‘BOOTS4BLUEBIRDS’ to 70085 to donate £5 to Cardiff City FC Community Foundation.

If you have any questions about Boots for Bluebirds, please email fundraising@cardiffcityfc.org.uk
