They have just started working Liverpool fan club Red All Over The Land which has been a part of the Anfield match day furniture since 1995. They are looking to give back to help the local community, charities and foundations. They don’t just give back to Premier League clubs, they give back to clubs in League One and League Two which is great to see.
