Every year Lee Smith and Ross Perkins organise a Boxing Day Charity Football match in East Goscote.

This year it was held to raise money for a defibrillator to be installed on Jubilee playing fields, so that it is near the football pitches and play areas.

The total raised was a fantastic £850 and has been topped up to £950 by a donation from a previous raffle held in the Chemists.

The team are aiming to raise at least another £500 in order to get this project completed.

The defibrillator will be for the benefit for the whole village and any extra will be used for future maintenance of the machine.

Please consider donating and helping this fantastic project!
