"I am happy and proud to be an ambassador for the LFC Foundation,”
“To have people listening to me is the best thing I can do to help our Foundation.
"All of the people who work for our Foundation do an incredible job, I love them all, because the things they are doing are just incredible.
“It’s such a wonderful organisation and the best thing a football club can do is to give people good moments, hope, belief and the knowledge that they are actually never alone.
"I enjoy each moment with the Foundation, it’s really great, so it’s win-win situation for all of us.”
Almost half of LFC Foundation’s participants in the last 12 months were from the 10% most deprived local authority wards in the country.
