What we’ve done…
Established in 1996, multi-award winning onevalefan.co.uk hosts the SW Valiants supporters group and proudly sponsors Port Vale players and matches. We’ve raised £40,000 for the club through competitions and sponsorships. We’ve arranged matchday visits by club legends as well as organising book signings and charity fundraisers. In addition, we’ve raised money for local charity The Dougie Mac through a range of fundraisers.
We’ve published a book (“No Ordinary Season” if you’re interested) and curated a free exhibition of Port Vale memorabilia (2014’s Vale Vaults held at the Barewall Gallery, Burslem).
