£1,000 Charity Cheque From Sunday League!

Wolverhampton Sunday Football League yesterday came along to the Mayor's Parlour to celebrate the HM The Queen's 80 th Birthday, and presented the Mayor with a handsome cheque to the value of £1,000 for the Mayor's General Charities Fund!
Councillor Phil Bateman MBE said " It is a fabulous gesture from an organisation that I once had a small role in. I was very happy to attend the recent Charity Cup Final and give the presentation to the winning team. But to receive such a magnificent sum as well is just wonderful

I want to thank the whole League for this fabulous gesture, I remember with great fondness the time I spent with the strongest Sunday Football League in the Midlands. I am pleased that they felt that they could make such a big donation to my fund.......thank you everyone!"
