Castleford Tigers PNG players Liam Horne, Jeremiah Simbiken, Judah Rimbu and Sylvester Namo are on their way to London this morning to meet  King Charles III.

The four Kumuls players departed Westgate Station, enroute south to meet the King; along with the PNG ambassador who are collectively supporting the Mission Aviation Fellowship; with the King commissioning a new humanitarian aid plane.

MAF are a Christian mission organisation that uses planes to overcome logistical barriers. Their pilots personnel deliver relief workers, doctors, pastors, school books, food, medicines – everything that can only be safely and speedily transported by air for millions of people.

Jungles, mountains, swamps, insecurity and dilapidated infrastructure are all barriers to receiving physical and spiritual care and a hope for the future.
