Football Aid

The concept of Football Aid is simple: to allow fans the chance to experience the thrill of match day; to pull on their favourite shirt, walk down the tunnel and play an adrenaline fuelled 90 mins charity match on the hallowed turf of the club they support. Since Football Aid's debut season in 2001, 674 games involving 17, 800 players have taken place on a UK club, European and National level and our vision is to continue to deliver exciting and groundbreaking fundraising events that allow supporters to 'Live the Dream'​. 67 clubs have hosted our games over the years, with the likes of Arsenal, Aston Villa, Celtic, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Newcastle United, Nottingham Forest, QPR, Rangers, Sheffield Wednesday, Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham Utd and Wolves all hosting games in the UK. Genoa and Sampdoria became the 1st ever Italian clubs to sign up in 2014 and they were joined by Sporting Clube de Portugal in 2015, with the Lisbon giants becoming our 1st ever Liga NOS team to come on-board. We've also staged International events at Wembley, Hampden Park and the Millennium Stadium. Football Aid was created as a unique way of raising money for charity and voluntary organisations. Through our parent charity, Field of Dreams'​ multi-beneficiary grant award scheme, the funds raised from the Football Aid events are distributed to diabetes research, education and management projects plus charities nominated for funding by the Clubs that take part and we're extremely proud to have donated over £2. 23M in charitable grants since our inception.
