Thank You Spennymoor

Spennymoor Town Make Donation Of Over £2,000 To Alder Hey!

We’re proud to confirm that the Club has been able to make a donation in excess of £2,000 to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital following Tuesday’s game against Southport.

Following the tragic events that took place less than a mile from Southport’s home ground at the end of last month there has been an outpouring of emotion from all corners of the country.

As a result, we wanted to do something to show our support and solidarity with our friends at Southport Football Club when they visited The Brewery Field in midweek.

It was arranged that £2 from every ticket sold for the fixture would be donated to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, where those caught up in the horrendous attack were provided with extraordinary levels of care.

In total, £1,300 was raised from ticket sales, a bucket collection and other kind donations on the night and now Moors Chairman Brad Groves has personally boosted that to £2,000.

We also agreed to donate proceeds from the half time draw organised by Spennymoor Town Fans Group to the cause, meaning our total donation is £2,260.

“I would like to thank everyone who helped us raise money for such a worthy cause,” said the Club’s Managing Director, Ian Geldard.

“Southport are at the heart of their local community and it’s difficult to imagine what the people there have been going through over the last few weeks – but we knew we had to do something to show our support.

“The generosity we saw didn’t surprise me. Football clubs like Spennymoor and Southport are showing how we have the ability to bring people together in a special way even in the most tragic of circumstances.”
