A BOLTON law firm has been supporting the town’s famous Lads and Girls Club.

AFG LAW hosted a silent auction at their Mawdsley Street office to back the club’s Yellow and Blue Day.

All staff were invited to participate and the directors closed the office early so that everyone could attend a silent auction.

The event, organised by legal executive Tracy Haslam, was a huge success and proceeds from the event totalled £501.20.

BLGC encourages young people to be the best they can be by providing innovative activities, unique experiences and high-quality enterprise

programmes.

They support young people to meet their full potential while providing a safe place with friendly faces to talk to.

Several of AFG LAW’s staff are also involved in the mentoring scheme ran by the club and AFG LAW have supported them for over 16 years.

"As a firm, we are committed to giving something back and helping to make our communities better, however we can," said managing director Anita Boardman.

"Events like these enable us to support Bolton Lads and Girls Club for the great work they do with the young people in our town.”

Kelly McFadden, fundraising manager at Bolton Lads & Girls Club added “AFG LAW have supported us for many years giving both their time and expertise to help the Club.

"The Silent Auction was a great event and we appreciate all the efforts that Tracy and her team made to ensure it was a

success.”
