LFC Foundation and Forever Reds donate £50,000 to support Liverpool Spirit Appeal

Liverpool Football Club’s official charity and former players association have donated £50,000 to the Liverpool Spirit Appeal, helping to double the city-wide fundraising to over £100,000.

The charity appeal has been set up to support those directly affected by the incident which followed last week’s Champions Parade in Liverpool.

Set up by the Community Foundation for Merseyside in partnership with Liverpool City Council the distribution of funds will be guided by a range of partners including the National Emergencies Trust, Fundraising Regulator and The Charity Commission.

The financial support from the LFC Foundation and Forever Reds has been made possible thanks to the proceeds raised at the recent LFC Foundation Gala Ball.

The money donated to this Appeal in the first instance will prioritise those individuals identified by emergency response services as: individuals experiencing physical and/or any subsequent psychological injury who were directly impacted by the events on 26th May 2025, requiring hospital/medical treatment.

Secondly the fund will offer help to community organisations working in the Liverpool area which can be provided for a range of charitable purposes.  It will support community organisations offering support such as emotional wellbeing and mental health, community response coordination and initiatives that bring communities together and build resilience.

There is also a variety of free resources available for mental health support which supporters can access if they were affected by the events on the 26^th of May.

Supporters can also donate to the Liverpool Spirit Appeal on their Just Giving page here.
