The 1895 Trust are delighted to announce that Committee Member and Fundraising Officer Barry Worthington will be running the 2016 Belfast City Marathon on Monday 2 May to raise funds for the Trust.

Barry has been training for this event, his first marathon, since October and is personally footing the full cost of participating in the run so all donations will fully go to the Trust.

Any fans looking to make a donation can do so at the next two home games against Bohs and Athlone as well as at the upcoming 1895 Trust SGM or online via the Trust’s PayPal account. Payment can be made using PayPal, by sending payment to shelstrust@gmail.com.
