Foundation given Charity status

Big step forward

The Darlington FC Foundation has today been given charity status by the Charity Commission.

This great news is thanks to several months of talks and submission of documents by people involved with Darlington FC, and now enables it to move forward with its plans.

Foundation chairman Steve Rose said; "Now that we are registered as a charity, we can drive on as a Foundation, with the aim of improving the physical fitness and metal wellbeing of our community, as well as applying for grant aid."

The Foundation will now be registered as Charity Number 1185957.

The Foundation, via Head coach Liam Coates, is organising the “Cycle to Walsall” event in the Dolphin Centre on Friday 1st November -- details here:
