Maitland Gladiators opened their hearts and their wallets recently to help raise money for Maitland and Dungog Palliative Care. The club donated $600 to the recent Family Hotel Show and Shine taking the day’s total to $1400. Event organiser Mick Prater said the day was a huge success. “It was a great day with fantastic support from the local community and the Gladiators Motor Cycle Club. There was a real community spirit.”
