Inverness Caledonian Thistle is doing its bit for charity.

Inverness Caley Thistle is reaching out to help Highland Hospice during the 2020-21 SPFL Championship season.

The club will team up with the hospice over a number of different projects throughout the year, designed to help raise funds and increase the profile of the charity which provides vital end of life care.

It will also make a donation to the hospice from the sale of every pink away shirt and the hospice will become an official kit sponsor, being gifted the chance to have its logo on players’ shorts.

Highland Hospice corporate fundraiser Karen Duff said: “We are very much looking forward to working with ICTFC as its charity partner over the coming season and would like to extend our thanks to the club for choosing to work with us.

“The partnership will bring many exciting opportunities to help our fundraising at a time which is more critical than ever before.”

Caley Thistle chief executive Scot Gardiner said: “We are thrilled to partner up with such a worthwhile and respected charity as Highland Hospice. Like numerous other organisations, they have been seriously hit financially through lockdown and we’re really keen to help them raise funds so they continue to carry out their crucial work that benefits the Highland community.

“I believe that football clubs are supposed to be much more than just a business. They are social institutions and community assets.

“From our perspective, the partnership fits in perfectly with our TogetherNess campaign. The people of Inverness and the Highlands are at the heart of everything we do.”
