Your support makes all the difference.Wolverhampton Wanderers have made a six-figure donation to support the National Health Service in their battle against the coronavirus pandemic.
Wolves’ donation to the Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust will go towards buying essential equipment for new wards that are being built, its chairman Professor Steve Field said.
“This investment will make a huge difference to us and our patients,” Field said. “We are so grateful for all the support we have received from the community during this extremely difficult time.”
Wolves players have also separately donated to the collective fund started by players of England’s top-flight league.
“We know the club has been doing a lot of fantastic work to support the city since the outbreak,” Wolves captain Conor Coady said.
“We felt we wanted to add to that as a team and show how grateful we are to the NHS for everything they do locally and nationally.” Reuters
