Warriors will be putting their weight behind Comic Relief on Thursday (March 15) by helping out on the first day of Debenhams ‘Mega Day Sale’.
The players were meeting and greeting shoppers at the main doors and till points of the menswear department between 11am and 1pm.
And a selection of first team players, including Miguel Avramovic, Nick Runciman and Simon Whatling, will be selling tickets to Friday night’s crunch match against Newcastle, with 50% of the ticket money going directly to Comic Relief and helping towards a world free from poverty.
Employees from club sponsors npower, the Official Energy Partner of Red Nose Day 2007, will also be at the store to help push the event.
And Debenhams, in conjunction with the club, will also be conducting a day long free prize draw offering one lucky person the chance of a family ticket to come along to Friday night’s game and cheer on Warriors against Newcastle.
Dan Zaltzman, Warriors Head of Marketing, added: “As a club we have four chosen charities – Acorns Children’s Hospice, Wooden Spoon, Macmillan Nurses and County Air Ambulance – but it’s great to offer further help and get behind such a worthwhile national charity as Comic Relief.”
