A rugby club in Darlington is hoping to do its bit for Help for Heroes by staging a charity match over the upcoming weekend.<\/p>\n
Darlington Mowden Park Rugby Club has named the match against Caldy on Saturday (March 2nd) as its very own Armed Forces Day, reports the Northern Echo.<\/p>\n
Several special events will be held to mark the occasion, including a lunch prior to the fixture that will cost £25 and the chance to hire a corporate box for £200.<\/p>\n
Anybody who turns up to the match wearing a military uniform will be given free admission as a sign of appreciation for their efforts.<\/p>\n
The club held a similar event last season at which it raised more than £2,000 for the charity and organisers believe they can beat that figure this time around.<\/p>\n
Darlington Mowden Park play at the town's 25,000-seat stadium that was previously the home of Darlington FC, ensuring the military day will be held in a spectacular setting.
