A Fantastic Day for OLLY at the Charity Football Match

We are delighted to share the amazing outcome of the recent OLLY Charity Football Match, which was a fantastic success and raised an incredible £2,800 in support of our charity.

This brilliant total included £500 raised for the framed Liverpool FC Istanbul memorabilia, which helped make the day even more special and added to the overall fundraising success.

The event was a wonderful example of people coming together to support OLLY, and we are so grateful to everyone who played a part in making it such a memorable occasion.

We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to all of the players, managers and organisers who helped make the day possible. Your time, effort, generosity and support meant so much, and the event simply would not have happened without you.

We are also incredibly proud to share that Cammell Laird FC Trustees are going to show their support for OLLY in a truly meaningful way. They are planning to put OLLY’s logo on all of their team shirts, as well as on their programmes and website.

Even more generously, they are going to pay to have OLLY’s logo added to shirts across all of their teams, including both adult and youth teams. This is a huge gesture of support and means so much to us. It will help raise awareness of OLLY across the wider community and keep our charity visible in a positive and lasting way.

We are also excited that our OLLY children will be welcomed there at Easter, which is another lovely step in building this growing connection.

This has been far more than just a football match. It has been the beginning of something very special, and we are incredibly thankful for the kindness, generosity and ongoing support shown to OLLY.

To everyone who supported the day, donated, attended, took part or helped in any way, thank you. Your support helps us continue the work we do and create more opportunities for the children and families connected to OLLY.
