Unique Latics shirt to be auctioned for Maggies

The shirt will be won in a silent auction

A Latics shirt, which was worn at the fixutre against Leyton Orient last month, is to be auctioned to raise money for Maggie's Cancer Centre in Oldham.

The Oldham Athletic Community Trust (OACT) are organising the silent auction, with funds being distributed between OACT and Maggies.

Recently, the Latics first team squad pledged their support to Oldham fundraiser Ibrahim Yousaf, from Coppice who raised £1616 for Maggies with his latest campaign.

Now, OACT are auctioning the exclusive shirt from the dedicated match day.

The shirt will be sold to the highest bidder in a silent auction which will end at 5pm on Tuesday 19 April.

A slient auction is one in which bids are submitted without knowing the value of other bids.

To place your bid, simply email enquiries@oact.org.uk including the price you wish to bid.

The winner must make payment to the OACT donation page within three days of their win.

Maggie's Centres Maggie’s offer free support to anyone with cancer and their families.  Support Specialists, Psychologists and Benefits Advisors are available for help and support at the sites.

Maggie's Oldham can be found in the grounds of the Royal Oldham Hospital, opposite the Victoria Breast Care Unit.
