The fundraising campaign to raise funds towards the Clough/Taylor Monument at Pride Park is well underway.

Last month Derby County announced that the greatest managerial partnership in football history is being reunited with news that a special monument is being commissioned and will be located on Pride Park next summer.

Local company East Midlands Security, who provide Derby County's security services at Pride Park Stadium and Moor Farm, have decided to support the project by donating £15,000.

Pictured are Marc McNeil and Jas Bains from East Midlands Security handing over the cheque to Derby County's Vice President of Operations, John Vicars at last Saturday's home game with Reading.

John said: "This is an extremely kind gesture and reflects East Midlands Security's ongoing commitment to support community initiatives."

In addition local businessmen and lifelong Rams supporters Peter Marples and Ray Garlick have each donated £5,000 towards the project.

"I would also like to thank Peter and Ray for their very generous donations. Both are well known to the club and we value their ongoing support and contributions," added John.

Peter and Ray are pictured above with the Rams Chairman Andy Appleby.

Rams fans can also support the fundraising project by either making a donation or simply buying some Clough/Taylor memorabilia which is now available at shopDCFC and www.wearederby.com.
