Saturday 11th April Welling United will wear this strip to raise money for Jo's Cervical Cancer Trust against Kidderminster Harriers. Sally and I have donated £100 to sponsor a shirt for this event. Replica shirts like the one in the picture are available to pre-order from the ACS shop next to the entrance to Park View Road. pink T-shirts are also available to purchase from the shop. As this a cause very close to my heart I urge all my friends and family in and around the area to come along to the match or pop into the shop and buy up the stock of the Charity shirts.

That was a fantastic amount raised and everyone who donated to this worthy cause should feel proud of themselves. Paul took on a massive task in organising this event, and with the support from his family and friends, helped to make this a day to remember. Well done mate!!
