This comes after the devastating break-in at that same business earlier this month, during which more than £7,000 worth of merchandise was stolen. Wrexham co-owners Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds generously gave £3,500, and locals collected an amazing £4,700 to assist the owners in getting back on their feet. Mendy, along with fellow Wrexham AFC player Elliot Lee, backed the store's reopening and exhorted Wrexham citizens to patronise small businesses.
