Tubby Football Club and NHS International Football Club, joined together this year to raise money for the Breast Cancer services at West Cumberland Hospital.
The teams come together each year for a friendly game of football and to raise money for a good cause. The players each donated £10 to take part, they sold football cards and held a raffle to raise the cash.
This year they agreed to donate to the Breast Care Team who were delighted to be presented with a cheque for £450!
Natalie Walker, Breast Care Nurse at WCH said:
“We’re delighted to be chosen by the teams for this incredibly kind donation, money like this really does make a difference to us. We will use the money towards Health and Wellbeing days for the ladies in our care as well as buying specialist bras which we know make such a difference to the women we care for. So a huge thank you to all involved!”
Eric Parkin, who works as a team cleaner at WCH explained:
“We’re happy to be raising money for such a great cause and look forward to getting together with our NHS International friends every year, to raise as much as we can!”
Thank you to both teams!
