The money is to help him in turn to present much-needed funding to the Children’s Cancer Ward at the Royal Victoria Infirmary Hospital at Newcastle.

The money was raised from a mini football memorabilia auction held at the football club, with Romar Innovate Trust match funding the £300 raised for Mason.

At the presentation, Mason handed the medal he won at the Transplant Games to Geoff Nicholson from Whitehaven AFC as a thank you for organising the event.
