Trust members urged to get involved in abseil |
Motherwell fans have the chance to view their favourite stadium from an unusual angle and help a good cause at the same time.
Clic Sargent is the UK's leading children's cancer charity and it is the beneficiary of a sponsored abseil event at Fir Park on Sunday June 13. Clic is an acronym for Cancer and Leukeamia In Children. The charity is keen for lots of participants to make the day a success and those taking part are guaranteed an unforgettable time and the chance to take in a unique view of the new pitch.

Standing at approximately 100 feet, participants will abseil from the gantry down to the pitch side.
Motherwell fans are invited to join in on what will be an excellent event all in aid of a great cause. Further details are available from organiser Agnes Banks, for more details or to register drop her an email at agnes.banks@clicsargent.org.uk.
