BFCitC annual dinner raises £43k

Burnley FC in the Community’s third annual Charity Dinner proved a record-breaker this year, raising over £43k for the charity.

Hosted by journalist, broadcaster and author Alastair Campbell, compered by Jeff Brown and held at the Fence Gate, the charity welcomed 220 guests to the annual black-tie event – the charity’s biggest fundraising event of the calendar.

The event also recognised a number of individuals who have benefited from the various community programmes delivered by the Clarets’ official charity, as well as the outstanding achievements of the Burnley FC Women’s team and Scott Cunliffe (the Burnley FC fan who is currently running to every away fixture of the season).
