Penryn under-15s have been busy fundraising for their tour to Italy next May and everyone involved has been overwhelmed by the generosity of the local and wider community.

Thousands of pounds has been raised to enable 24 boys and three coaches to tour Italy and represent Penryn RFC against two local teams.

The boys know what a fantastic opportunity this is and along with the parents and coaches wanted to do something to "give back" and show their appreciation.

Ten days ago the team agreed that they wanted to do something that would help children and it was decided that they would support the toys for Treliske appeal.

In a very short period, the team had collected a large amount of toys some of which are shown in the photo.
