Lowestoft Town are delighted to be welcoming Offside Trust East Anglia to Crown Meadow on Saturday for our first team fixture vs Cambridge City

We will be joined on the day by Offside Trust Director Alan Arber, Ambassador Cas Tobin and Honorary Ambassador Barry Howard.

Offside Trust East Anglia are a organisation which raises awareness of abuse in sport and their primary aim is to help safeguard children and young people in all sports.

On Saturday they will be present at the club throughout the afternoon as we welcome in our new era under Cion Wren in our Isthmian League Division One North Fixture vs Cambridge City.

They will be positioned in the terrace on the right as you come in the turnstiles and will be running a raffle to win a signed Wayne Rooney picture of his iconic overhead kick goal vs Manchester City in 2011. The raffle will be £2 a strip, £5 for 3 strips or £10 for 7 strips. The raffle will be drawn on the day so you could take this iconic prize home from as little as £2.

Alan Arber is recognised across East Anglia having played over 1,000 games of Football as a goalkeeper and over 200 of those for Lowestoft Town. In more recent years he has become an inspirational safeguarding figure across East Anglia through his Offside Trust work.

Alan, Cas and Barry will always be very welcome to the club and we are delighted they are joining us this Saturday for their annual visit to Crown Meadow.

The Offside Trust welcomes all and provides a safe space with safe personnel to discuss all safeguarding matters.

Please support the Offside Trust this Saturday which will help them continue to their outstanding work on awareness days and at tournaments as well as their less documented work supporting families who have dealt or who are dealing with abuse.

We look forward to welcoming Alan, Cas and Barry on Saturday.
