Wrekin Juniors Under-10s Lions are proud to announce their latest exciting fundraising event, a Fun Day and Sponsored Football Match, set to take place on 24th August at Admaston Playing Fields.

This day of family-friendly activities will bring together parents and guardians and other keen supporters from the local community to raise money for both Wrekin Juniors Lions Football Club and a local family support charity called Home-Start Telford & Wrekin, which provides vital support for families and young people in need.

The highlight of the event will be a sponsored football match, where players from Wrekin Juniors Under-10s Lions will take to the field to entertain and raise much-needed funds. The proceeds from the match will support the team in the season ahead with equipment and other costs with a proportion also going to Home-Start Telford & Wrekin, supporting both the development of youth football and the charity’s work community.

But the fundraising doesn’t stop there! Attendees are encouraged to donate unused and new toiletries, books, and toys to support young people and families supported by Home-Start Telford & Wrekin. These items will go a long way in providing much-needed essentials and bringing joy to children and families in our area.

The team will deliver these items to Home-Start Telford & Wrekin’s at Meeting Point House following the fun day activities to personally hand the items to the charity's team of local volunteers and hopefully engage with as many members of the local community as possible on the way.
