Who are we?
We are an inclusive and growing football club, currently supporting 3 senior teams, a Vets side, and a youth setup starting at U14s. The men's first team is currently playing at the highest level in the club's 115 year history.
Why are we crowdfunding?
As a membership based organisation and community amateur sports club, we believe all our members should have access to football and the mental, physical and societal benefits that come with being part of a team. We wish to raise a bursary fund that members will be able to apply to access during periods of financial difficulty to cover match, training, signing-on and equipment fees.
How we’ll spend the money raised
It’s important to be transparent about how you plan to spend the money you raise. Your audience will be more likely to make a pledge if they can see how their donation will help.

Community impact
It’s important to explain the wider impact of your organisation for the whole community, who does it benefit and why? Perhaps your facilities are used for other purposes outside of sport too?

How you can play your part
There are four simple ways to help us reach our target, and make this project a reality.
1. Make a pledge. Don’t delay if you’re going to support us because momentum is key to our success!
2. Spread the word. Share our project on your social media pages and tell the world to get behind us! The more people we reach, the more support we will get.
3. Offer rewards. Get involved if you are a local business by donating things we can offer to our supporters. We will give you a shout out!
4. Fundraise for us. If you want to run your own fundraiser – maybe a sponsored activity or similar – use the 'contact project' button at the top of our page to let us know. Setting up your own page only takes a few minutes and you won’t need any bank details. Just a fun idea!
