Spireites volunteer wins National League award
Alan Roe, who works for Chesterfield FC on a voluntary basis, has won February’s Volunteer of the Month award for the National League.
Alan has been involved with the club for many years since the 1970s in various capacities. After being on the books as a player as a youngster, he later coached goalkeepers as a volunteer. He was also the club photographer for many years and, in recent years, has helped out with maintenance at the training ground.
A club spokesman said: “Alan is first and foremost a supporter with a deep affection for the club.
“He has also been a dedicated volunteer for many years and his help and assistance is very much appreciated by those connected with the club.”
