Walk a Mile with the Mascots at Walsall FC
Join Swifty and Alex the Acorn and take on a one mile walk to raise funds for two fantastic charities – Acorns Children’s Hospice and Walsall FC Foundation
It’s Acorns first Takeover Day of the season on Saturday 20th September. Swifty and Alex will lace up their shoes and complete a one mile walk, starting at the Pallet-Track Bescot Stadium visiting the local area before returning to the main reception.
Children, along with one accompanying adult, will complete the sponsored Mile with the Mascots event, which starts and ends at the home of Walsall FC, with all proceeds going to Acorns Children’s Hospice and Walsall FC Foundation.
Youngsters who complete the challenge by fundraising a minimum of £50 or donating £30 to charity, will receive two free tickets (1 adult + 1 child) to attend the Walsall vs Tranmere fixture (3pm kick off) following the charity walk.
Places are very limited for this first-time ever event. Email foundation@walsallfc.co.uk to take part!
