In a recent cheque presentation held at Ferryhill Town Hall, Councillor Peter Atkinson presented a cheque for £100 from his Members Initiative Fund (MIF) to Geoff Wilson, on behalf of the White Horse FC.
The Football Club, who are based at the White Horse Pub, and who play their matches at the Dean Bank A167 pitch, will use the monies together with a £350 contribution by Councillor Atkinson from his County Councillor Small Grants Fund, to help cover the annual running costs incurred by the Club.
Councillor Atkinson said ‘I am delighted to be able to support Ferryhill White Horse FC. MIF monies will enable the grassroots Club to cover their fees for 2023-2024 without having to worry about how they are going to raise the funds.’
