As a form of collaboration I was involved in the organising of a fundraising football tournament to commemorate the life of the man that fuelled the idea for my FMP project. Since posting an open call for participants to my project I have been in regular contact with Chrissy’s family as they have been enthusiastic to hear about the development of the project.
The tournament was held at the grassroots football club where I volunteer and I was responsible for connecting organisers with the venue. The event also had a representative from Mind Stockport who would be the benefactor of the event which raised over five thousand pounds.
