Raising Funds For Sickle Cell Society🎗️

We believe football should bring communities together, without barriers. We’ll be using this platform to raise funds and awareness and support for the Sickle Cell Society. Sickle cell disproportionately affects people from African and Caribbean backgrounds, and this event is about more than just football, it’s about shining a light on a condition that touches many lives and supporting the incredible work the Society does every day.

We have attached our donation link which goes directly to The Sickle Society. Please take a spare moment and donate, every donation goes a long way.
