Crazee Continues Challenge - Ipswich Town News

Town mascot Crazee is now a third of the way through his attempt to raise funds for the ITFC Charitable Trust by sitting on every seat at Portman Road before the end of the season. Meanwhile, due to Town’s third round FA Cup exit, the Charitable Trust is now holding children’s birthday parties at Portman Road on Friday 27th and Saturday 28th January.

Crazee has now sat on 10,000 seats in his 30,300-seat challenge, but still has a long way to go and hopefully fans will spur him on further by making donations as he advances towards the finishing line at the end of what is a very long race.

Crazee is raising funds for the Charitable Trust’s Disability Programme, which works to offer children, young people and adults with physical disabilities, learning difficulties or mental health issues, the same football opportunities as mainstream football players via a variety of sports-based programmes.

To make a donation go to http://www.itfccharitabletrust.org.uk or TEXT craz33 followed by the amount you want to give, eg £3 to 70070. Crazee’s Just Giving page can be found here.

For more information on next week’s birthday parties or to book another date, call Jo Barker on 01473 400940 or visit www.itfccharitabletrust.org.uk/football-activities/birthday-parties.
