RANGERS is pleased to confirm the receipt of £220,000 from Club 1872, with the funding ring-fenced to support a series of heritage projects at Ibrox Stadium.
The investment marks a significant step forward in the Club’s strengthened relationship with Club 1872 and reflects a shared commitment to preserving and enhancing our history, fabric and identity of Rangers.
Work will now begin across a range of carefully identified projects, focused on the conservation, restoration and presentation of key areas and artefacts within Ibrox.
Rangers Chairman Andrew Cavenagh has thanked the Club 1872 Board and their contributors for the funds.
He said: “The history of Rangers is part of everyday life for our fans, and it’s something we are responsible for protecting.
“We see this as the continuation of a long-term commitment to preserving and strengthening the heritage of Rangers for future generations.”
Initial projects approved by both the club and Club 1872 members via a vote include works to preserve key areas inside and outside the Bill Struth Main Stand at Ibrox such as the Trophy Room, gable end mosaics as well as supporter facing areas such as the main stadium track.
In addition, the funding will support initiatives designed to bring the Club’s history closer to supporters, including the digitisation of historic minute books and the development of new heritage displays within Ibrox.
This contribution forms part of a new phase in the Club’s engagement with a refreshed Club 1872 board of directors including Nine-In-A-Row Hall of Fame defender John Brown, centred on delivering tangible, visible outcomes that protect and celebrate the heritage of Rangers.
Rangers Football Club thanks Club 1872 and its contributors for their continued support and shared commitment to safeguarding our history for future generations.
