Liverpool youngster Woodburn launches appeal to aid families during coronavirus crisis

Liverpool youngster Ben Woodburn has helped launch an appeal which aims to raise money for disadvantaged adults and children across the North West and North Wales.

The forward, who is currently on a season-long loan with League One side Oxford, has teamed up with former Reds team-mate Danny Ward, local charity the Emily Ffion Trust and Chester restaurant Hickory’s Smokehouse. The appeal will raise funds for children’s charity Cash 4 Kids, which is proving vital support to families and vulnerable individuals during the coronavirus crisis.

Woodburn grew up in the Cheshire village of Tattenhall, and in November 2016 became the youngest goalscorer in Liverpool’s history, netting against Leeds in the League Cup aged just 17 years and 45 days.
