    Blue Triangle shirt auction to raise funds

    Blue Triangle shirt auction to raise funds

    Blue Triangle, a social care organisation and national charity, will auction two signed Motherwell FC shirts on Wednesday 14 February.

    The shirts, signed by the first team and Women’s team, were kindly donated by the club. Blue Triangle is the current front of shirt sponsor of the Motherwell Women’s team. The auction will be held online, run by Great Western Auctions.

    The organisation run two services in North Lanarkshire. The Viewpark supported accommodation in Uddingston, which supports up to 12 people aged 16-35, and Breakthrough, an Intense Peer Recovery Support outreach.

    “We are excited to run our first charity auction, and our thanks to Motherwell FC for their kind donation of signed shirts, and to Great Western Auctions for facilitating,” CEO of Blue Triangle Gary Meek said.

    “All funds raised will go towards running our essential services in North Lanarkshire – helping to provide even greater support for some of the most vulnerable in the community.”

    The aim of Blue Triangle’s work is to prepare supported people to move onto their own home. Over half of those entering Blue Triangle services move on to their own tenancy, helping to break the homelessness cycle.

    Staff facilitate this by working one to work with the young people, identify support needs, such as mental health, addiction or further education.

    Blue Triangle’s Viewpark service scored highly in their latest Care Inspectorate report, awarded 5’s in all areas.

    One young person stated that Blue Triangle staff “really care, listen, and follow through on the things they say they will help with.”

    Another said, “All staff are lovely and really caring, more so than anywhere else I have stayed.” At Blue Triangle, we pride ourselves in living our values – being kind, passionate and creative, every day.

    WHY YOU SHOULD INVEST IN THIS FOOTBALL CLUB

    WHY YOU SHOULD INVEST IN THIS FOOTBALL CLUB

    Based in North Lanarkshire, between Glasgow and Edinburgh in Scotland, Motherwell Football Club was first established in 1886 and currently play in the top flight of Scottish Football.

    Winning the league, the Scottish Cup, playing in two domestic cup finals in one season, representing on the European Stage in the UEFA Champions League, Europa League and Europa Conference League in recent campaigns.

    Motherwell is a community club and that means assisting our fans, the local residents, our staff and our players wherever we can. From raising suicide awareness campaigns due to suicide rate in young males in our local area and fanbase, to giving away free season tickets to low income families, this football club is a pillar of our community.

    But what makes this club so unique?

    In 2016, we became the first fan owned club in Britain. Our supporters pay into the Well Society and with that, they are part of the process in which decisions are made around the club.

    We’ve proved fan ownership is possible. Together with members we’ve enjoyed a period of relative success. We’re still learning. But we’re ambitious. We can go even further.

    If you feel like you want invest in Motherwell Football Club or join the Well Society as we continue to forge a future together, then get in touch. We’d love to hear from you. More details can be found here.

    Chairman’s notes on advertisement video

    A note from our Chairman, Jim McMahon, following the release of our advertisement campaign.
    We have launched a campaign to attract new investment to support the work our club does both on and off the pitch.
    The campaign features a tongue in cheek 90-second film, which riffs on the growing trend of US celebs owning UK football teams.

    We’re proudly a fan owned club but we are always looking for ways to do more and achieve bigger things. This is a slightly, out of the box approach, but with it, we hope we can increase Well Society memberships or find businesses or individuals whose values align with ours.

    Most football clubs operate at a loss and are only viable through significant annual subsidies from their owners.

    There’s a lot of talk of famous investors from the US right now. So we thought it’d be fun to put our own spin on the theme,
    to show what we’re all about at Motherwell Football Club.

    Hopefully you can see that we’re a club that goes beyond just the 90 minutes. With things like walking football and mental health support, we’ve always helped the local community to make sure the positive effects of football can be felt off the pitch too.

    We welcome anyone who wants to support a proper community club. Whether that be new additions to the Well Society or new sponsors. And if anyone from Hollywood wants to get involved then we’re all ears.

    Thanks for your support.
    Jim McMahon
    Chairman
    The Chairman has also sent out a note to season ticket holders and Well Society. Please check you emails. If you have not received this and you are a 2023/24 season ticket holder or Well Society member, please contact well.society@motherwellfc.co.uk.
