02.12.2024

Gemma Owen joined a host of famous faces from the world of football for a special evening in Liverpool.

She attended the Football For Change fundraising gala, an annual event which raises vital funds for young people for living in poverty.

But this year there was another great cause at the focus of fundraising efforts - Zoe’s Place, a children’s hospice in the city which was facing closure, received a £22,000 donation from the night.

Gemma was honoured to be a red carpet host at the event, while comedian Matt Lucas hosted the main event. Paloma Faith and Texas performed.

Helen Flanagan, Claire Sweeney, Ricky Hatton and footballer Virgil Van Dijk were also guests on the night.

Football For Change was launched by Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jamie Carragher, and Conor Coady in 2021 in partnership with the Communities Foundation for Lancashire and Merseyside.
