Weston Youngsters Raise £1220 In Memory Of Chris Barker

Weston academy players and staff have raised £1220 in memory of former player Chris Barker who also played for Hereford FC.

The money is going to MIND, the mental health charity.

“It’s a brilliant achievement, and a lot of credit should go to our academy boys and staff, they have certainly covered some miles and for a great cause,” said Weston's Scott Bartlett.

“I spoke to Richie (Barker) recently and he was really touched. He will be proud that our club have managed to complete this, it has not only raised some money and awareness for an important charity, it also celebrates the wonderful career Barks had.”
