Our First Dream Fund Matchday Experience!

Thu 23rd November 2017

We’ve had some fantastic feedback from our first ever Dream Fund Match Day Experience, showing we really are making dreams come true! 

Our special guests had an amazing day at hospitality recently following the launch of our Dream Fund earlier this season which expands on our existing work helping to bring smiles to the faces of children and adults whose lives have been impacted by the likes of disability, illness or other difficult circumstances.

Stephanie McGown, who’s godfather Alex (Tiger) was invited along with his family, was very grateful for the opportunity to bring him to a game and enjoy the atmosphere together:

“Being able to experience such a fantastic day with my Godfather was just amazing.  It’s a memory we will have forever and a story that will be told a lot over the years to come.”

“Myself, Jamie, Tiger and Angela were so impressed with the generosity that we received during our time with you all.

“We are extremely thankful and grateful and we fully intend to get behind this charity 100%, to enable your foundation to keep giving experiences like this to all the other fans out there having a hard time. What you guys do for people is truly heart-warming.”

Grant Hendry’s Grandad Peter was one of the guests who attended on the day with his family, and Grant was also keen to point out how much they enjoyed their special day together.  He commented:

“I just wanted to thank everyone for our day.  My Grandad had a brilliant time. You all went above and beyond and my family appreciated it.  He was in an environment where he felt comfortable, and it’s thanks to all of you.”
