Sellebrity Soccer’s co-founder, Kevin Cooper, said: “We are really pleased to have our rescheduled celebrity match date now in place at Ashton Gate Stadium. With the last 12 months having been so tough for everyone, it’s great we can bring some much-needed feel good factor in a safe and secure environment.
This year’s match is raising money for Just 4 Children – a charity that supports children and young people under the age of 25 with disabilities and sickness. Money raised from the match will go towards supporting ‘Dylan’s Pool’ campaign – funding a warm water hydrotherapy pool for 14-year-old Dylan Tillsley, who has cerebral palsy.
Dylan’s parents, Marc and Emma, said: “Thank you seems too small a word for the gratitude our family have towards everyone involved and supporting this game.
“For Dylan to be able to access a warm water pool at home, to complete daily hydrotherapy, will literally be life changing for Dylan and his growth as an independent young man.
“Thank you so much from all of us, for everyone’s kind support as this will mean so much to the whole family if we can achieve this goal.”
