Club Captain Jerry Hodge said: “We are really pleased to have raised such a good amount – we held a variety of fundraising events through the year, including a Charity Day,  a Captains Day, a fundraising dinner, a charity auction and raffles.”

“We would often would support just one organisation as our charity of the year, but because of the pandemic hitting charities, we decided to spread the fundraising across three charities to help more.”

“They are excellent good causes and we really thank everyone who donated.”
