Charity game supports the gift of sight

Emdad Rahman: The Human Relief Foundation has organised a charity game to raise awareness of charitable causes around the world. 

On 30th April two teams will go head to head in a fun exhibition game and aim to raise money to support two causes. The Human Relief Foundation teams plan to fund a water well project and 25 cataract operations. 

HRF Team One manager Jalal Uddin said: "We are using the beautiful game as a medium to raise awareness of how lucky we are to have such brilliant facilities in the UK, to help us overcome these issues, and to also help some of our most vulnerable fellow human beings." 

HRF Team Two manager Khoyrul Shaheed added: "It will be a fun experience for us whilst we highlight serious humanitarian issues. Please allow both teams to extend our heartfelt thanks and gratitude for your amazing support. We cannot achieve this without you." 

The two teams are made up of locals who live, work and volunteer in Tower Hamlets and will be captained by Akik Miah and Emdad Rahman from Stepney Footbal Club. The link to donate is https://www.justgiving.com/hrffootball
