Like all clubs, Braves are sidelined at the moment due to the current lockdown.

But when football does resume all NHS staff will get free admission to the club's home games at Alliance Park for the entire 2020/21 season.

Launching their #FORTHEBRAVE campaign, Braves say they wanted to give something back to the NHS staff who have been exceptional in ensuring the safety of the nation through their efforts on the frontline.

Caledonian Braves owner Chris Ewing said: "It makes absolute sense for us to offer free entry to our NHS workers for next season.

"The whole club is founded upon the notion of bravery and challenging the norm and our NHS have proven time and time again that they are exceptional human beings and an inspiration to us all.

"Their efforts have been particularly highlighted in recent times, though they put themselves in the front line every day to help others, often overworked and underpaid. If we as a club can give a little back, then we do so with thanks.

"It may seem a long way to go, but hopefully when we get back to normal and the football starts back, we can welcome NHS workers to Alliance Park and they can find some respite and enjoyment supporting the Braves.”
