THE Eve Shepherd memorial charity match will kick off this Sunday to raise vital funds for three charities close to her family's hearts.

The match was organised following the death of the 14-year-old Birchwood High School pupil earlier this month.

Woolston Rovers RLFC will play against Cadishead Rhinos ARLFC at Monks Sports in Woolston.

All money raised will be split between the Peter Pan ward at Great Ormond Street, Alder Hey Bereavement team and Warrington Animal Welfare.
