The family and friends of Tim Cogley have been fundraising for Claire House Children’s Hospice in his memory.
Tim had many passions, two of which included football and Claire House Children’s Hospice.
Last month a charity football match was played in his honour. The venue was Gayton Park, and the aim was to celebrate both his life and his love of football and add to Tim’s fundraising for Claire House.
The match saw Cogley’s Legends take on Cogley’s Cubs. Ex-Liverpool players like Jan Molby, Paul Ince and Michael Thomas made up the Legends side and the Cubs consisted of staff from the Red Fox, Thornton Hough and the 107 Dining Room in Heswall.
At the final whistle the score was 2-2 and with no clear winner the match went to penalties with Cogley’s Cubs coming out on top 5-4.
More than 200 people attended the game which raised £1,000 for Claire House Children’s Hospice.
Claire House Community Fundraiser Rhyanna Morris said: “The amazing event Mark Cameron and both teams organised in memory of their friend Tim, truly made everyone at Claire House smile.
“They have been so enthusiastic and dedicated to raising the most money possible for Claire House.
“The money they have donated will allow Claire House to help and support seriously and terminally ill children and their families.
