In addition to fundraising through sponsorship and donations from the public, Games Aid is also raffling off signed football shirts from every club on the tour to support the range of fantastic children’s charities that the organisation backs.
“The support of the UK games industry has already helped me raise a fantastic £30,000 for Games Aid but we’d love to raise even more in the coming weeks,” said Terry Haynes, Co-Chair of Games Aid.
“Whether you’re jumping in as a sponsor or just dipping into your pocket to grab a raffle ticket, every pound you contribute will make a difference to the lives of young people across the UK.”
