Chelsea Football Club manager José© Mourinho and club captain John Terry shared 
their football skills with children at Chelsea’s training ground in Cobham this 
week to raise money for the ‘Kick for CLIC Sargent’ initiative, in partnership with
American Express.

The initiative enables schools, football clubs and community centres across the 
country to organise sponsored challenges, skills days and penalty shoot-outs to 
raise money for the children’s cancer charity.

Seventy five percent of monies raised by the events will be used to provide ongoing
care and support for the thousands of children and young people, and their families,
affected by childhood cancer and leukemia in the UK. Schools, clubs and associations
taking part will be able to keep the remaining twenty five percent of the money 
they raise for their own local initiatives.
