Own a Match Worn Shirt and Support Cure Leukaemia

Football fans worldwide will have the unique opportunity to raise money for Cure Leukaemia and the battle against blood cancer, whilst also getting their hands on a unique piece of football memorabilia.

Led by ex-footballer and CL Patron, Geoff Thomas, football clubs and players across the country have united and kindly donated a variety of signed shirts, many of which have been worn during matches, making them an unrivalled piece of football fan memorabilia!

GEOFF THOMAS RAISING FUNDS FOR CURE LEUKAEMIA

Following a highly successful football career, captaining Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup Final and achieving nine international caps for the England national team, Geoff was diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia (CML). After recovering from the blood disease, Geoff embarked on a mission to raise funds for the charity that helped save his life, Cure Leukaemia.

In the previous 15 years, Geoff Thomas has raised over two million pounds for the charity, equating to more than 300 million pounds worth of life-saving drugs. He will taking on the challenge of completing the entire Tour de France route in 21 days for the sixth time this year. Amongst other innovative and challenging campaigns, Geoff has united the football community more than once for this honorable cause.

With the right infrastructure and sufficient funding, it is thought that all forms of blood cancers could be eradicated within the next 15 to 20 years. This is the ultimate goal of Cure Leukaemia, to develop and provide lifesaving treatments and technologies for blood cancer, helping to put an end to the disease that sees a patient diagnosed with a form of blood cancer every 14 minutes.

OWN THE MOMENT, SUPPORT THE CAUSE

In this new initiative, Geoff has reached out to his footballing community asking them to donate shirts and support this initiative. Not only have individual players and ex-players responded to the call, but plenty of Premier League, EFL and SPFL clubs have also kindly donated their match shirts from a game of their choice.
