Fans to stage Anfield charity walk
Liverpool fans are being asked to support a walk from Newton-le-Willows to Anfield later this month in memory of a passionate Reds fan Chris Edwards - and raise money for charity in the process.
Kopite Chris sadly lost his brave fight with stomach cancer in late 2010 aged just 33, leaving behind his wife Joanne and unborn son, Luca, who arrived safely in February of this year.
Raised in Birkenhead, Chris was an avid Liverpool fan since childhood and held season tickets at Anfield with Joanne.
Even at his funeral, his love for the club was on show with an LFC flag draped over his coffin.
Now, Chris's family and friends want to honour his memory by walking the 16 miles from his family home in Newton-le-Willows to Anfield on Saturday, June 25 - and they're hoping to raise funds for the Christie's charity.
All money raised will go towards research into gastro-intestinal cancer at Christie's hospital, where Chris received his treatment.
