MOUNT Pleasant Rangers Junior Football Club were presented with shirts for the new season by their sponsor yesterday.

The club's under-11s picked up the red kit from staff at the North Park Care Home, I'Anson Street, Darlington.

The team, based at Newton Lane, Darlington, were formed in 2002 and play in the Teesside Junior Football Alliance.

Honorary president Steve York, who launched the club, said: "It's good to see local businesses getting involved and supporting us."

North Park Care Home also had another set of visitors yesterday - Bill Wilson and Dan Goddard, from parent company Barchester Healthcare, who are completing a coast-to-coast cycle ride.

Money is being raised for the Alzheimer's Society and the Barchester Healthcare Foundation.
