Pallet-Track is supporting the official charity of Walsall Football Club and helping to make the game more accessible to the local community with a £5,000 donation.
The Black Country pallet network is also sponsoring the Walsall FC Foundation’s matchday visits for the upcoming season and its donation means locals of all ages can enjoy a one-hour football coaching session, followed by a ticket to watch the Saddlers play.
Pallet-Track’s donation to the Foundation follows a two-year partnership with Walsall FC which has resulted in the pallet network becoming a prominent sponsor of the club, with its signage visible around the stadium.
Pallet-Track CEO Stuart Godman said: “We are proud sponsors of our local football league team and delighted to extend our support to its charity.
“Walsall FC Foundation’s values align with those we have at Pallet-Track, uniting local communities – and football does an excellent job at bringing people together!”
Walsall FC Foundation supports groups from across the borough and beyond, including youth violence, integration, women’s support, older age, mental health, and unemployment. It also encourages first-time players and spectators of the sport.
Walsall FC Foundation director Adam Davy said: “The funding will allow us to target a number of groups, allowing us to break down barriers and provide more than 500 individuals with a matchday experience at Walsall FC this season.
“We are aware that there are people who don’t get the opportunity to attend matches at Walsall FC as freely as others and these are the people we aim to target.
“A huge thank you to Pallet-Track for making it possible for us to give a number of families, community groups and project participants the opportunity to experience a live football match – some for the very first time.”
