A grand old day out for charity football in Warton
The fund-raiser, organised by the Dalmeny Hotel in St Anne’s, was aimed at raising money for the UK Sepsis Trust through a football match at Kellamergh Park in Warton, the former home of AFC Fylde.
It was organised by hotel worker Kath Hands after her mum Marian Hands died from sepsis two years ago.

As well as the football match, the day featured a family fun aspect through a bouncy castle, face painting, a children’s penalty shoot out and Pimms and prosecco for the parents.
A talk was also given by sepsis survivor Julie Carman.
