FOOTBALL club veterans have donated some kit to help a football club get on their feet again.
The Accrington Grammar School Old Boys Association presented a cheque for £150 to buy a set of goal posts and nets for the youngest members, aged four to seven, of Clayton Park Rangers Football Club after their 'home' was burnt down.
The presentation ceremony took place in the gym at St Christopher's School where the youngsters were taking part in a training session on a Saturday morning.
The Association raises funds from the membership so that the members can 'put something back' into the wider education of the town's youngsters as payment for the education which their school and the town gave to them.
