Hanley Town FC

Reading the latest When Saturday Comes magazine this week, I was really interested in an article that highlighted the great work being done by former Stoke City manager Lou Macari for homeless people in his adopted home town.

Searching for a little more information led me to Hanley Town of the North West Counties League Premier Division and now with the name of the Macari Foundation proudly displayed on the back of their shirts.

A fantastic example of how a football club, even in the absence of any action on the pitch, can still be at the heart of its local community, Hanley's home ground is also currently being used as Covid test centre.
