Foxes legend supports hospice charity's fundraiser

Wes Morgan, who captained the Foxes to that remarkable Premier League title in 2016, is calling on residents to buy a ticket for the charity’s Superdraw.

The lucky winner will score a top prize of £3,000, with other cash prizes of £250, £100 and £50 also up for grabs.

Since 2015, the annual Superdraw has raised £235,286 for Rainbows, which supports children and young people with terminal and serious illnesses from Leicestershire.

Former City ace, Wes, said: “It is an honour to be part of the Rainbows Superdraw and I hope people will support this brilliant, local charity by getting involved.

“Even if you just buy one ticket, you’ll be making a difference to the lives of so many children and young people that Rainbows supports every day.

“I have spent a lot of time at Rainbows and it is a wonderful place with an incredible team of people who care for families every day; helping them to make valuable memories and being there through their darkest times.”

Tickets, which cost £1, can be bought until Friday September 30. The lucky winner will be drawn on Friday October 7.

Jennifer Varnam, lottery and supporter engagement coordinator at Rainbows, said: “Wes is a fantastic supporter of Rainbows and we are delighted he is fronting this campaign and making a difference to the lives of so many.”
