"There will then be an evening event at The Lansdowne Hotel and we have to say, we has been totally blown away with the support and generosity shown by the hotel. The team there is helping us bring these legends to Belfast and have actually given us their rooms and function room for free, to support our charity.
"It is set to be a really brilliant day, with kick-off at 2pm. It is obviously a fundraising event and TAMHI will be working with those who are set to play the legends, right up to the event, to help them to build self esteem. and take part in mental health games too.
"The mascots themselves will be local people who have been affected by suicide. It''ll be free for them to go in and watch. It just is a huge positive event. Bringing United legends to North Belfast has never been done like this and we are working through Legends XI, based in Belfast.
"To anyone thinking of coming, we just want to say come along. It will be a fantastic event, full of positivity, and good craic as well. We are really looking forward to it."
