A BROMSGROVE computer company will be hosting and taking part in a 12 hour football marathon to raise cash for charity.

ATG, an IT services provider based in the town, will be raising cash for the Stroke Association, which provides support for stroke survivors and their families through a range of activities.

60 players from the business and many more volunteers and other members of the public will play matches throughout the day and night from 10am to 10pm on Saturday, November 17 in Halesowen.

The event is being organised after a family member of one of ATG’s employees passed away from a sudden stroke.
