Derian House Children's Hospice in Chorley provide care, respite and end of life care for children and young adults with life-limiting or life-shortening conditions. Derian House cover the entire of Lancashire, Southern Cumbria and North Manchester. To provide their services the cost to Derian House is just over £4m per year. Out of this they receive only 8% in any statutory sources, leaving them to find the other 92% themselves.

Here at Dixons Carphone we have decided to help such an amazing cause. To raise funds for Derian House we are holding a Marathon Charity Football Match at Chorley Football Club. Teams from across Phil Rostron's DC12 will take on the cream of the crop from Stuart Breeze's DC14. Who will be standing at the end to claim the trophy and bragging rights of the best team in the North West!
