Trust own shares in Leamington FC Limited

The Trust has purchased a small number of shares in Leamington FC Limited, meaning that every Trust member is now a stakeholder in Leamington FC. This is a small but important milestone, further cementing the good relationship which the Trust enjoys with LFC Ltd.

Trust helps with Leamington FC’s ‘Secure Your Club’ initiative.

The Trust also recently contributed toward the security initiative at the club to help with funds to repair the damage caused by many recent break-ins. The Trust handed over £750 to kick off the campaign and its worth mentioning how that money came about:

£500 was raised by the Leamington Football supporters club scratchcards. Brakes Trust board member Jim Miller still runs this initiative on match days and thus why he presented the cheque to the club.

£250 was donated to the Trust by an anonymous donation that was to be used specifically for ‘Secure your club’.
