A BANK employee in Worcester has been given hundreds of pounds for a local junior football club.

Tracey Pearce, who is customer services officer at the National Westminster Bank in The Cross, Worcester, is also the chairman of Whittington St Peter's Junior Football Club.

She has been given a £250 donation from NatWest's community cashback award scheme, money which has been put towards new equipment for the team.

She said: "It is always a challenge raising money to buy new equipment, so it is great the bank have donated this money to the club just because of my involvement."
