Receiving the cheque on their behalf was Scott Maxfield, the Head of the Iron’s Community Sports and Education Trust, who has been joined by some of the disability football team and participants on the disability scheme.
Scott said: "On behalf of the trust, we would like to thank the club for their donation. The money will go towards sustaining and expanding our very successful disability programme."
