Charity race night event on behalf of University Hospitals Dorset

Following the Charity Race Night that Poole Town FC hosted back in November, a cheque presentation was made recently to acknowledge the £5,773 the evening raised for University Hospitals Dorset NHS Charity.

The funds raised will go towards the Club’s overall target of raising £6,500 for the Charity this season to enable it to buy toys, consoles and soft furnishings for the new Children’s Ward at Bournemouth Hospital.

Thanks also go local charity, The Gale Foundation Trust, who donated £2,500 towards the total.
