Our latest Help a Buddie tickets were delivered to the Ralston Day Centre ahead of last weekend's match against Dundee United in the William Hill Premiership.
Marcus Fraser and Elvis Bwomono visited Ralston Day Centre to hand across tickets and meet service users at the facility that neighbours the St Mirren Training Ground.
Helen McGowan, Manager of Ralston Day Centre, told stmirren.com: "Many of our service users are long-time St Mirren supporters.
It's a dream for them to have some of the players come in and speak with them. It really brightens up their day and makes them feel part of the community.
"It's delightful that the club has provided the tickets and it keeps the passion going for the services users."

Help a Buddie
Help a Buddie is an initiative where St Mirren supporters can purchase and donate a match ticket for those less fortunate. Since its launch in 2022, we have been able to welcome numerous groups and individuals from all over Paisley and Renfrewshire to The SMiSA Stadium.
Your support of Help a Buddie allows some of the most vulnerable and at need in our community the chance to attend matches at The SMiSA Stadium where they may not have previously had the opportunity.
