Monday, 16 January 2023 at 11:31

Kind members at Waterloo and Taunton Conservative Club have presented local football club, Waterloo AFC, with a cheque for £100.00.

Presented by the club Chairman Leon Tamcken and club Secretary Lyndon Watkin, on behalf of club members, the money came from fundraising efforts from Saturday night raffles. 

Waterloo Warriors, Under 8's Assistant Manager, Stuart Biddle said, “Our newly formed team has been going from strength to strength.

“This money will be put to good use, allowing us to buy a new pop-up goal and footballs for the youngsters. It is much appreciated.”

Community efforts like this are monumental for local clubs, giving children access to a wide range of facilities.
