Red Neighbours compete in charity walking football tournament

The group headed to Salisbury Rugby Club on Sunday morning, where they joined 28 men’s and six women’s teams from across the country for the 'You’ll Never Walk Alone' fundraising tournament, run by Salisbury Walking Football.

The Darby Rimmer MND Foundation was launched by former Liverpool defender Stephen Darby following his own MND (motor neurone disease) diagnosis last September. The charity aims to raise awareness of MND and offer support to sufferers and their families.

Stephen and his wife, England women's captain Steph Houghton, were both in attendance at the tournament, which featured teams representing Stephen's other former clubs: Bolton Wanderers, Bradford City, Swindon Town, Rochdale and Notts County.
