More Good PR from Hereford United

The announcement that the Hereford United Community Trust have entered a partnership with Whitecross School whereby pupils can purchase tickets to watch the Bulls at Edgar Street shows just how much effort is being put in by the club to work in the local community.

"It's going to benefit everyone," says Jamie Edwards who leads the team. "The school benefits from having access to the closest professional club to them, the Club benefit from seeing more fans of the future coming into Edgar Street."

For some time the Community Trust coaches have been working at Whitecross and recently some pupils have come to Edgar Street for various lessons.

"We're working on health, we're working on education, we're working on social inclusion and we're working on improving sports participation and our involvement with Whitecross sees us reaching all of those targets," said Edwards.

The club are hoping to set up partnerships with other schools in the local area in the near future.
