THOUSANDS of pounds have been raised by an 'inspirational club' who set out on a mega challenge for a cause close to their hearts.
Academy players at the Connah's Quay Nomads were challenged to complete the 'February Mile a Day challenge' for MIND.
As a result, friends and family rallied behind the players and donations have been rolling in, taking the club donations past the £10,000 mark for 2021 so far.
Jay Catton, director of football at Connah’s Quay Nomads, completed his personal January challenge which raised over £5,600 and The Nomads Academy have continued this 'fantastic work' by raising more than £5,100 in February.
