Twenty commemorative Liverpool FC poppy jerseys specially produced for Remembrance Day have raised more than £52,000 for the Royal British Legion – thanks to our fans' generosity.
The huge figure, which smashed the £22,000 amount raised from the shirts that were worn during the Reds’ fixture against Fulham in 2018, is the highest ever raised by any Premier League club’s poppy shirt auction.
The record-breaking shirts were worn during the home win over Manchester City in November to commemorate those who have sacrificed themselves to secure and protect our freedom.
All of the funds raised help the Royal British Legion to support today’s generation of armed forces families and veterans, whether they are living with an injury or illness, coping with bereavement or finding employment.
