What the petition asks

Where each sports has an allocated game day where funds are raised for the NHS and local charities across the UK.

For example in football on Boxing Day, have a fundraiseing on the game day and along any charity events.

I want funds raised to recognise our key workers in time of need.
I want you to ensure the things which have been put in place to help during this current crisis remain for good.

So we take the positives from this situation and always remember all our essential services and honour our absent friends.

I want recognition for the front line workers during this time and have the sport world at all levels try raise funds and have a game in honours of the ‘FLWs’ Our front line workers.

As sport can bring everyone together in some form.
