We will be having a charity football match at Falkirk Stadium on the 28th of July (4 pm kick-off). One of the teams is a local football team representing Ladywell Baptist Church in Livingston, who play in the Edinburgh Churches League. The other team is a squad of Sky employees, mainly based at Watermark in Livingston. If you work at Watermark, you will definitely recognise a few faces from the squad!

Please come along and support this great cause and enjoy what I anticipate will be a fantastic game of football! The main aim of the game is to raise awareness and money for a local charity that is doing great work in West Lothian.

Your contributions truly make a difference, and any amount you can donate is greatly appreciated.

S.M.I.L.E are a local charity that help young people through counselling. Please have a look through their site to see some of the amazing things they do (snippet below) -https://smilecounselling.org.uk/.

S.M.I.L.E was born in 2015 with the primary aim of being able to offer a free counselling service to 11-24 year olds. We will be celebrating our 7 year anniversary in June 2022, and we are very proud to say, to date, we have helped over 950 individuals and 2000 young people in group settings. That's over 6,000 hours of counselling in total! All the money that is donated to us goes towards offering this valuable service within the community.

Addendum:

I lost my mum earlier in the year. She was a massive character who was extremely kind & willing to help anybody in need. I want to honour her memory and continue to try and make a positive impact on peoples lives , just like she raised me to do. That was the real driving factor of me organising this match. Also a huge factor in me picking S.M.I.L.E as the charity to fundraise for. I know that money raised will go to good use and have a positive impact on our local community.

Sky will also the match the funds raised from this event (up to £1,000) which is fantastic! So lets get donating ❤️.
