Dear Liverpool FC, presented by @NIVEAMENUK…
We've had lots of people asking what food is the best to donate for us to support families, so here's a list of what's the most useful for us.
Massive thanks to everyone who has already donated. We support families all year round & we really couldn't do it without your help! ❤️
Good morning everyone. Hope you all have a wonderful Friday. Spare a thought for those alone and smile at everyone who walks past. It doesn’t cost anything.
