Hillsborough Memorial Game

"The Hillsborough Memorial Game" is being staged in aid of the Marina Dalglish appeal, in a bid to raise much needed funds for the building of a new Radiotherapy Unit at University Hospital in Aintree.

An announcement on the confirmed line-ups for what promises to be a magical night will be made at a press conference at Anfield next week, with tickets being available to buy from Tuesday, April 28.

"This is a match we have been talking about staging for a while and it's brilliant we can now confirm it," said Kenny.

"The players who will be involved are all really keen to come together again and play for the fans who offered such support through the time of the Hillsborough disaster.

"I am sure it will be a great occasion with all of the money going towards the building of a badly needed Radiotherapy facility on this side of the water."

Marina added: "We want it to be a real fun night for everyone who comes along. That's the main aim, for everyone to have a good time.

"We are looking to raise money for the Radiotherapy Unit, but we are also looking at different ideas for the setting up of a memorial for the Hillsborough families somewhere in the hospital.

"The Hillsborough Families Support Group have been really helpful to us over the years and so it's nice for us to be able to stage this game in memory of those who lost their lives twenty years ago."

Ticket prices for the game will be: £15 (adults), £5 (U17s, wheelchair and visually impaired), free (personal assistant).
