TV football commentator and former World Cup player, Robbie Earle, visited The Children’s Trust at Tadworth, Surrey recently, to help launch ‘Big Goal’, a special World Cup fundraising campaign to benefit the charity.

It is hoped that ‘Big Goal’ will raise some £10,000 for the Children’s Trust and encourage football fans throughout the UK to raise money through a variety of football-related fundraising initiatives during the 6-week period of the World Cup.

Businesses, pubs, sports clubs and community groups are invited to take part. A fundraising pack is available from the Charity’s website to provide lots of creative advice and ideas on how to raise funds.
