Another exciting week in the club - let's get straight into the action below.
Stories
@ Ronald McDonald House for Ben and Mayling
On Tuesday evening, Liz Thomson and Byran Theunisen visited our ROMAC family at Ronald McDonald House - young Ben and mum Mayling.
 
Ben is now in the final period of recuperation post-surgery to fix the hole in his heart.
 
To celebrate his great progress we presented him with a small gift on behalf of the club - his own personal tablet device to use here and to take back home with him. It was apparent that the surgery was a great success as he was full of beans, running, jumping and playing throughout the evening.
 
Many thanks to Liz for her very big contribution in being there every step of the way with Ben and Mayling - this was a big commitment Liz and the club is very proud of you.
