Thank You, Stags Fans – Donations Continue This Saturday

This past Tuesday, our supporters once again showed the true spirit of Mansfield Town. Together, you donated a fantastic range of clothing and non-perishable food items to support The Beacon Project – a Mansfield-based day centre that provides vital support for homeless, excluded, and marginalised people in our community.

All donations arrived yesterday and have already begun making a positive impact. We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to every fan who contributed. Your kindness genuinely matters.

About The Beacon Project

The Beacon Project began in St. John’s Church, Mansfield, after five homeless individuals came in seeking tea and toast. From those humble beginnings, the project has grown into a dedicated day centre serving 50–70 people on a regular basis. Their work continues to be a lifeline for many, offering warmth, dignity, and essential support.
