Nantwich Town Disability Football (NTDF) are hosting their annual ‘24-hour Football-a-thon’ at Nantwich Town FC’s Swansway Stadium 3G pitch at Nantwich Town Football Club on Waterlode, Nantwich CW5 5BS.

The Football-a-thon will start at 7pm on Friday 31st May and go through to 7pm on Saturday 1st June.

If you are aged over 16 years and would like to take part in the Football-a-thon, please contact NTDF Head Coach Craig Acton on 07791214269.

The proceeds raised will go to NTDF towards helping with their transport and the day-to-day running of the club.

Craig Acton, NTDF Head Coach and Event organiser, said: “NTDF have decided to change it up in regards to fundraising so we thought why not just play football for a day; do what we love to help those who love the game too. Any donations would be greatly appreciated.”
