Story

British hockey legend and Olympic gold medallist Imran Sherwani has been diagnosed with Alzheimers disease.

Imran who scored two goals in the final as Great Britain's Men's hockey team won gold at the 1988 Games, has inspired so many of us in the hockey community.

England Hockey and Alzheimer's Research UK are asking you and your club to get creative and raise as much as you can to support vital dementia research.

The campaign will run from Thursday 1st July to 3rd October 2021. Can your club top the leaderboard and finish in the gold medal position?

Every club who raises £100 or more will receive a 'Thank you' poster signed by Steve and Imran.

The club who finishes top of the leader board in 'Gold' will receive: A club coaching session from a GB hockey star. A framed, signed 'thank you' photograph from Steve and Imran. A 2022 Virgin Money London Marathon place for club.

2nd placed club in 'Silver' will receive: A club coaching session from a GB hockey star. A framed, signed 'thank you' photograph from Steve and Imran.

3rd placed club in 'Bronze' will receive: Tickets to pro-league match. A framed signed 'thank you' photograph from Steve and Imran.

The club with the most creative fundraising idea will receive a hockey stick signed by Steve, Imran and stars of the 2016 Gold medal winning women's team.

Steve and Imran's son Zac have assembled a team to take on this year's London Marathon in Imran's honour. You can find their giving page here: https://justgiving.com/team/GoingforGold-LondonMarathon-ARUK
