A walk for Sophie Powell - The group will be at The Valley approx. midday Saturday

Curb_It

Some of you may have come across the sad story in the news previously about the courageous young lady called Sophie Powell who lost a tough battle with cancer. Sophie was local girl from Eltham and comes from a big Millwall supporting family. My sister will be joining the family this weekend (she's friend's of Sophie's parents) and a large group of friends in walking over 50 miles this weekend to all the London Clubs.

I believe they will be at Charlton around midday on Saturday so if you are there early and spot the group please give them a cheer.

If you wanted to make a donation here's the story about Sophie and the fundraising in her name but I also just wanted to tell you about the group that will be at The Valley Saturday lunchtime and why.

The group are off. Some great funds being donated. Just spotted a generous one gone in from an ex sponsor of Charlton's. People are so generous.

So don't forget if you see them tomorrow at the Valley, please give them a wave and if possible throw in a few pound. Mick E is hoping to send some reps down to greet them on their stop at the ground.

Don’t forget.. give them a cheer tomorrow.
