Podcast from Community Day!

Hi all,

Here is a brief podcast, hosted as usual by Bradley Mell. It was a successful day for Friends of Pakati – see here –  https://friendsofpakati.com/2025/03/24/22nd-march-community-day/

Just to follow on from that, the raffle prize was won by Scunthorpe United fan Mollie following the draw in the Iron Bar after the game. Unfortunately she had already left, so we arranged to hand over the prize at the next game.

Mollie accepting her prize!

Here is the podcast, recorded just yesterday…

As Brad mentioned, we have an interested party looking to get involved with Friends of Pakati which could well have a significant impact on us (favourably!) & could be a long-term partner for us. A meeting is being planned & we hope to put out a podcast (or maybe 2…) from that meeting to introduce them & explain where we go from there.

More stories & podcasts to come…see you again soon!
