Join us in The Cove on Friday 4th October, or place your bids in an amazing auction now!
Following the tragic passing of our much-loved former player, Paul Holmes, earlier this year, Torquay United FC will be hosting a fundraising evening in our Cove restaurant on Friday 4th October to help ‘Holmesy’ achieve his final goal of raising valuable funds for Rowcroft Hospice.
Having provided invaluable care and support for both Paul and his wife Kate, the former United favourite expressed a wish to fundraise for the Hospice, in order for them to continue their remarkable work and help others who find themselves in similar situations.
In addition to an online page set up in his memory – which has already raised over £5,000 – it is hoped that this forthcoming event at Plainmoor will raise even more funds for this fantastic cause.
With doors opening at 6pm ahead of a 6.45pm start, the evening with include quizzes with prizes, a raffle and an auction, and will provide an ideal opportunity for the Yellow Army to show their support for Rowcroft and remember a hugely popular former player at the same time.
