As part of a tradition since the club's launch in 2019, Bristol Rovers Women's FC, affectionately known as the 'Gas Girls' annually dedicate the front of their away shirt to a charitable cause aligned with the club's core values, to reflect their commitment to community engagement and social responsibility.

This year, we're pleased to have been chosen by the club as the charity sported on the away kit. This will raise awareness for our work and support essential services that provide care to patients and their families facing the hardest of times.

The exclusive unveiling of the kit took place on Wednesday 30 August, in the heart of the community in our flagship shop on Whiteladies Road. Seven of the Bristol Rovers Women's FC players graced the windows of the shop, proudly showcasing the new kit, complete with the St Peter's Hospice logo, embodying the spirit of collaboration between sport and community.

The sight of the St Peter's Hospice logo gracing the front of the Women's away kit for the 23/24 season fills us with pride. As we come together for this partnership, we eagerly anticipate the footy-inspired fundraisers that'll unfold during the season. Our shared goal with Bristol Rovers Community Trust to raise awareness and funds is a testament to our commitment to provide care for our local community."
