Conor Coady helped hundreds of children on Merseyside before his summer move to Everton.
Coady, 29, joined Everton on a season-long loan deal from Wolverhampton Wanderers - where he was club captain - after seven seasons at Molineux. But the England defender, who started his career at city rivals Liverpool, did not forget his North West roots while in the Midlands.
In 2020, he helped launch the Football for Change (FFC) charity initiative with leading PR firm ThisGeneration Communications and a host of footballing stars including Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Jamie Carragher, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Gary Lineker.
