Liverpool FC steward gives first pay packet straight to foodbank

A new Liverpool FC match steward handed over his first ever pay packet in the job to a foodbank to 'help someone else have a better day.'

The Anfield steward was working at his first Reds match on Saturday, as Liverpool blew Bournemouth away with an historic 9-0 win. While the steward will have had his eyes on the crowd during the match, making sure people were safe, he was also thinking about helping others after the game finished.

Fans Supporting Foodbanks is a project aimed at collecting food and essential items for foodbanks before and after football matches. The group was formed in Liverpool by West Derby MP Ian Byrne, Dave Kelly and Robbie Daniels. The project has now been expanded around the country.
