Zebre backing charity drive in Parma

That is because the club is also taking on the challenge of combating loneliness and isolation to achieve the integration, health and independence of vulnerable people in Parma.

The scheme - Parma: Let's be a Team 2014 - involves volunteers who help people with disabilities, the elderly and the sick to get to places of work, care and leisure.

And Zebre Rugby has added its name to the programme's backers, with a host of GUINNESS PRO12 stars becoming official ambassadors.

Between now and January 2015 'Parma: Let's be a Team 2014' will raise funds to purchase new vehicles to coordinate the operations centre and involve new volunteer drivers.

Many organisations have embraced the campaign, aiming to increase awareness as the Christmas period approaches, and Zebre is proud to be one of those involved.
