It's Coming Home , 10 July 2021
This summer, during the re-scheduled Euro2020 Championships, we're aiming to raise £25,000 by 11th July 2021 to establish a new FBB community hub to further build the programmes we deliver to support our amazing young people across the North West.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am looking to raise a minimum of £250 for Football Beyond Borders and if this is achieved I will be dying my hair blonde like England legend Paul Gascoigne did in Euro 96 and current England star Phil Foden has currently done!  My colleague Mark Whybrew will also be joining me in painting his beard white and red like the St Georges flag.

The plan is to dye my hair blonde if England (hopefully) advance to the Euro 2020 final! However if the target is met beforehand I will dye it in advance of the Semi-Finals.

We have chosen this excellent charity as it uses football to help kids from disadvantaged backgrounds to finish school and have a successful transition into adulthood, check out their website for more information on how they do this. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
