Two of our Veterans of the Foundation took place in a sponsored challenge prior to the game. Bernie Meehan and Dave Swift both raised money for the Saints Community Development Foundation by challenging themselves to travel 50-miles to the Totally Wicked Stadium.

Dave walked the duration of the trip, with Barrie in a Wheelchair to complete the 50 miles.

You can find out how to donate to their fundraiser here.

We also had several special guests join us. Colonel Stephen Boardman MBE joined us in the lounges, with Mayor Cllr Severiano Gomez-Aspron MBE and Cllr Lynn Clark also joining us.
