About kids kicks
We believe every child should have the chance to play, without cost being a barrier.
We’re a community-interest company dedicated to making sport more accessible by giving pre-loved football, rugby, and astro boots a second life. By refurbishing and reselling quality footwear at a fraction of retail price, we help families save money while reducing waste.
What we do
1. We collect pre-loved boots
2. We clean & refurbish them
3. You buy at a fraction of retail
4. We also donate boots to those in need!
Every pair we resell:
• Keeps usable footwear out of landfill ♻️
• Saves families money 💷
• Helps more kids stay in the game ⚽️
meet the founder
Holly Miles founded Kids Kicks to combine sustainability with social impact—giving pre-loved boots a second life while easing financial pressure on families. She believes sport builds confidence, creates opportunities, and brings people together.
She’s also passionate about increasing access for women and girls in sport, using Kids Kicks to break down barriers and support more inclusive participation.

“championing the women’s game.”
We are really thrilled to be able to support another small, independent CIC in CORE Caldicot, Holly has created a fresh and exciting energy to Kids Kicks and is dedicated in supporting grassroots football locally especially championing the women’s game.
- Aaron Reeks, Director of CORE Caldicot
"It has been great to work with Kids Kicks as part of our community engagement work."
The aims align- making sport accessible to those who experience barriers to access. There are kids now in Bristol who have benefitted thanks to their work and other members of the community who have given back by donating boots!
- Roza Bailey, Bristol City Robins Foundation
"Kids Kicks UK have been incredible to work with!"
Thanks to Holly, we were able to get 25 pairs of boots ready to donate through Her Game Too to a partner team in Kenya, making a real, tangible difference. What stood out just as much was her hands-on support behind the scenes, from carefully packing everything up to helping coordinate the courier side. It made the whole process feel easy and genuinely collaborative, rather than transactional!
