The Co-op led, Community Ticket initiative has raised over £4,000 so far this season, which has enabled the club to invite 2,000 youngsters and their families from 36 junior football clubs and 3 community groups to attend a live game at Edgeley Park.
With Stockport County chasing the National League North title and the team playing so well on the field, the Co-op believe that we have the perfect opportunity to help build the next generation of support. At their recent board meeting, the Co-op have agreed to match any additional donations from supporters, up to a maximum total of £500.
Pete Towey, Co-op Chairman commented; “The Community Ticket initiative has been a resounding success, alongside the Clubs’ Healthy Living scheme which is presented in schools across Stockport, Tameside and the High Peak.
This work is vital to help attract and build the next generation of support for Stockport County Football Club. It was fantastic to see around one thousand youngsters and their families watching the recent game against AFC Telford.”
“The Co-op has been proud to support the Community Ticket scheme and would like to thank Help the Hatters and all the supporters that have generously donated so far. With the team performing on the field, we feel as a board that it is important to take this opportunity to make a final push and purchase a further 500 community tickets. We are calling on Stockport County supporters and local businesses to help donate an additional £500 and the Co-op pledge to match these donations, pound for pound.”
