Local football club Linfield FC has pledged to support leading autism charity, Autism NI, by kicking off their partnership this week.
Northern Ireland legend and Linfield FC manager David Healy launched the partnership with Autism NI CEO Kerry Boyd and has pledged to support the Charity with a number of fundraising challenges and activities, as well as increasing accessibility within their stadium.
We’re really excited to begin this exciting new partnership with Linfield FC. This partnership is a great opportunity to raise autism awareness in the community, and raise vital funds for local autism services. Autism NI will be starting the partnership with a collection at Linfield’s home match against Larne FC this Saturday and we are urging fans to give generously. We are also launching an exciting new challenge next week with Northern Ireland legend David Healy and club captain Jamie Mulgrew, so keep you eyes peeled for the announcement.Kerry Boyd
