You can also pick up the QR code from the beer mats in the Clubhouse. The Trust has sponsored the beer mats and the QR code will take you to our membership page on our web site. Membership money usually ends up going to a specific project that needs funding in and around the Club which benefits both the Club and the fans. We are always liaising with the Club to see what needs doing and where best we can help out financially/project manage. We want to thanks all our long term members/life members/new members for your ongoing support. For a full list of our aims and objectives, visit our website as detailed below.
THE SUMMER CASH DRAW ticket sales are coming along nicely. Tickets are £5, with 50% of the proceeds split between 3 winners. The first winning draw will take place at the home game versus Harborough Town on August Bank Holiday Monday. Also don’t forget that the other 50% of proceeds raised will be pumped back into the Club - although with everything the Supporters Trust does, the projects will benefit all of us supporters. So even if you don’t win, you will be having a huge impact on our great club and the facilities we can all enjoy.
Tickets can be bought through our website here: https://ktfctrust30.blogspot.com/2025/07/trust-summer-cash-draw.html?m=1 or in the Clubhouse before the game. First prize is currently over £130!
The Trust is now 33 years old and has seen and done a lot over that time. We thought we would reflect on those years with a few DID YOU KNOWs:
• The Trust was formed in 1992 to try and help save Kettering Town from the threat of liquidation. We were the second Trust to be formed in the country behind the Cobblers Trust.
• The Trust Board is made up of an insurance broker, a GP Practice Administrator, a teacher, a lorry driver, a professional musician, a country manager – the rest of the Board did not want to admit what they did for a living!
• The Trust has donated more than £40,000 to the Club over the past 10 years alone – funding projects such as the Tin Hat Terrace extension, a new defibrillator, drainage works, a new pitch roller.
• At the first home game of the 2022/23 season we were hit by a heat wave? The Trust Board sponsored and handed out nearly 500 bottles of free water to fans to keep supporters hydrated.
Lastly, our thoughts are with our friends at the Shrimp Trust – what’s happening at Morecambe FC is tearing the heart out of their community.
