Kind-hearted Liverpool FC match steward donates first pay packet to foodbank

A generous football club steward has donated his first pay packet to a foodbank. The man, called Ian, said he wanted to help others.

In a note with the donation, he said it was his first ever pay packet, received after working at his first game on Saturday as Liverpool thrashed Bournemouth 9-0. He added that he wanted to "help someone else have a better day".

The donation was revealed on the Fans Supporting Foodbanks twitter account, which shared the heart-warming moment after the game. They said: "Tales of humility. Loaded the van after yesterday's matchday collection when one of the head stewards approached us and gave us an envelope. Inside that envelope was a card and a donation from a steward of his first ever pay from Liverpool FC. LFC your staff are one of your greatest assets."
