Giving back to the community

Chesterfield FC Women are proud to be supporting Chesterfield Food Bank.


"This is such an amazing local charity and it has never felt more appropriate for us as a club to give back to our local community," says Sadie.


In October the club held a collection at Chesterfield Rugby Club where the senior team was in action. Sadie says


"We have been trying to hold a collection once a month at our senior team home games and training too when we are able to do so. For the home games, we offered free entry to those who bring a donation."


When speaking to the food bank, it was a real eye-opener as to how many families rely on their services and families in such hardship that can’t even afford basics such as sanitary products.


"We know that it has been particularly difficult recently for our local food banks and we just wanted to show our community that we will support them where we can. We'd like to pass on our thanks to everyone who donated to our collections and enabled us to provide such a great selection to the Chesterfield Foodbank."
