RGC supporters raised £2,000 for Cerebral Palsy Plus in memory of William James Nelson, son of former RGC Academy coach Saul.
Rugby fans contributed through a raffle and ticket donations, showing support for the charity.
The fundraising initiative honors the Nelson family and highlights the generosity of the RGC Supporter community.
Saul and his wife Emma, along with their son Thomas attended RGC’s recent home fixture against Chester, where supporters joined together for a moving minute’s applause in William’s memory.
“Raising money for this incredible charity is the least we could do for Saul and his family, and I’d like to thank all of our amazing fans who contributed. We are one big family here at RGC and come together when needed to support our own.
“Your unwavering support also shines a light on the important work that Cerebral Palsy Plus undertake and long may they do so” said Alun Pritchard, RGC General Manager.
Cerebral Palsy Plus has played an important role in supporting the Nelson family, and this fundraising initiative is a testament to the strength and generosity of the RGC Supporter community.
