The Bluebirds Trust, a voice for fans of Barrow AFC, is celebrating its 10th anniversary this month.

It was originally formed back in 2014 following the football club's take over by private ownership, having previously been a members club.

The organisation is hoping to get more people than ever involved in its annual fundraiser to mark the special milestone.

Every year the Bluebirds Trust runs its 1901 Club in an effort of raising enough money to fund their share of the club's budget for the new season.

The opportunity to get involved ends on Saturday, August 31, with over 350 entries to the scheme at the time of writing and momentum 'beginning to build'.

A spokesperson from the trust commented: "Since our formation in the summer of 2014 we have gone from strength to strength, being a voice for the fans from the beginning with a membership of under 400 in National League North, to now having a 10% stake in a Football League club with over 1200 members.

"We have an incredible decade of achievements to look back on and celebrate as we open the window for another summer of 1901 Club sales."

The Trust has been using the recent months to look back on how it initially formed, as well as celebrating the people and businesses that made it possible.

Now in its sixth season, the 1901 Club is a major fundraiser for the Trust, providing a much needed boost during the summer months when the football is away. 

On sale from June 1 to August 31 each summer, entries cost £25 each for 12 monthly draws between September and August, with three prizes per month.

The prize pool for the year is 25% of the amount raised from sales, with 75% - minus online processing charges - going to fund the Trust's share of the club’s budget.

Last season, the three monthly prizes were £240, £120 and £60 - and the Trust is hoping that, with more people backing them in their anniversary year, those totals will be higher this time around.
