The Club are delighted to let supporters know that our Bristol Street Motors Trophy Final Ticket Fund has exceeded £5,000 in donations.
We would like to thank all our supporters who have donated to this fund to allow us to offer tickets to so many deserving families who might not have been able to attend our showpiece final on Sunday 7th April at Wembley Stadium.
The Free Kicks Foundation have selected two nominees who will receive VIP tickets in Club Wembley and an Executive Box respectively. The recipients of these tickets have been contacted and will be collecting their tickets, coach travel tickets and Junior Posh Memberships before our fixture against Carlisle United on Good Friday.
Steve Thorpe, Founder and Trustee of Free Kicks Foundation, commented “We have been amazed but not completely surprised by the support of the Posh fans with this project, to raise over £5,000 in such a short time was beyond our wildest dreams, we would like to thank all who have contributed or donated tickets and the team at Posh for their help over the last week”.
Thanks to the amazing contributions of our fans, we are also able to offer over 30 other families match tickets, coach travel and Junior Posh Memberships. This is particularly impressive as we have been able to offer tickets to all those nominations that were eligible. All these nominees will be contacted in the next couple of days to arrange their tickets and travel.
Peterborough United Football Club CEO, Dawn Gore, said of the initiative “We are delighted to have partnered with the Free Kicks Foundation in this wonderful initiative. We would like to thank all of our supporters for the generosity they have shown and look forward to welcoming all the families to what will be a very special occasion at Wembley.
The club would also like to thank Ticketmaster UK for their tremendous support for the campaign by waiving all booking fees for the tickets bought from the proceeds of this fund".
