The Wellsford Volunteer Fire Brigade is expected to return a $2500 donation gifted by the local Head Hunters chapter.

The infamous motorcycle gang's Wellsford chapter raised the money through their 'Outlaw Run' fundraising ride.

Charities law expert Sue Barker says there's laws around accepting donations from criminal organisations- if the money was raised through illegal actions. 

"The question is- has this donation come from illegal sources? I don't actually know, it sounds like it was done from a charity day, it's only $2500, people could have been donating small cash, items."
