Liberty International Underwriters in Europe, a member of Liberty Mutual Group, is organising a charity football match at Charlton Athletic’s Valley ground on Thursday 19th May at 3pm, in a bid to raise £10,000.
The two competing teams, organised by LIU Europe’s London Market Directors’ & Officers’ and Financial Institutions divisions, will pitch LIU Europe staff against each other as well as brokers from the D&O and FI markets.
As well as playing for the footballing honours on the day and the specially mown ‘Turf Trophy’, the two teams will be competing to raise the most money for their nominated charities, the Teenage Cancer Trust (D&O) and the Make a Wish Foundation (FI).
Commenting, organiser Emma Pearce, Vice President for D&O, said: “The competition is fierce but friendly and both teams are excited about outdoing each other. We have already enjoyed tremendous support from our trading partners with brokers and underwriters keen to get involved in the fundraising for two such worthwhile charities.”
Spectators on the day are welcome. Tickets are a £10 minimum donation and those supporting the D&O team should contact Emma Pearce, while FI supporters should call Sarah Tappenden on 020 7860 6600.
