Karen & Tim are the parents of Ellie - a member of the club's U11 squad. 

Karen & Tim asked about Wooden Spoon and how they fund projects in local communities... They both then announced they were planning to run the Swansea Half Marathon to raise funds for the charity.

Tim is also set to run the Bournemouth Marathon in October carrying a Wooden Spoon Rugby Ball!

Wooden Spoon's aim is to positively transform the lives of disadvantaged and disabled children and young people across the UK and Ireland through the power of rugby.
