Support Our Foodbank At The Merseyside Derby

Blues heading to the 232nd Merseyside Derby on Sunday are being urged to get behind the Fans Supporting Foodbanks initiative.

As the festive period approaches, it is always the busiest time of year for foodbanks as the situation across Merseyside, particularly in North Liverpool is stark.

The Fans Supporting Foodbanks initiative, set up by local Everton and Liverpool supporters groups in conjunction with North Liverpool Foodbank, Anfield Breckside Community Centre, Unite in the Community and the Trussel Trust, has received the backing of both football clubs and other supporter groups.

Ahead of each Everton and Liverpool FC matchday, volunteers from North Liverpool Foodbank are joined by supporters to help collect food donated by fans.
