Wrexham supporters raise over £800 with bucket collection for local organisation

Wrexham supporters have helped to raise over £800 for a local organisation at the recent Wrexham AFC and Tranmere Rovers Game.

MacIntyre in Wrexham held a bucket collection outside the game on March 16.

The organisation provides education, support and care for more than 1,200 children, young people and adults who have a learning disability and/or autism across England and Wales.

Its vision is for all people with a learning disability to live a life that makes sense to them.

Locally MacIntyre helps 16 adults to live “gloriously ordinary lives”

The generosity of Wrexham fans helped to raise a grand total of £813.50 for the organisation.

Carly Morrissey, area manager said: “Every single penny of this will go towards local community projects, making a massive difference in not only the people who draw on our support but you as well.

“We are so thankful to every single person who donated and have been completely blown away by your generosity,

“Our thanks go to Wrexham AFC for the opportunity to raise funds, but also to raise awareness of the work that we do in and around the town.”
