Lily Blackhurst has been named Everton Fan of the Year for 2017.
Lily had been a Season Ticket Holder for more than 20 years and until recently followed the Blues all over the country, however she cannot now attend all home and away fixtures as she dedicates her time to care for her husband who has dementia.
She is a passionate supporter of the Club’s official charity, Everton in the Community, and is actively involved in Pass On Your Memories, an initiative which supports people living with dementia and their carers.
Run from Goodison Park four times a week, ‘Pass on the Memories’ uses a range of interventions, including sporting reminiscence workshops and custom-made life story memory books, to help people share important memories and create new ones.
