Manchester City defender backs Didsbury mum’s charity campaign

Great article in today’s Manchester Evening News about City’s Nedum Onuoha supporting a Didsbury mum.

Michelle White, who is a close friend of Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha, has survived four heart operations since she collapsed at work in at Manchester Airport in 2003. After everything she has been through she now wants to raise awareness regarding heart problems through the British Heart Foundation.

Nedum is donating various items of football memorabilia to charity and making a sizeable donation to the charity. He said, “The British Heart Foundation is a really important cause and I want to do anything that will help make steps forward in helping people whose lives are affected by heart problems. It might only be a little step but it is a step closer to where everyone wants to be”.

To help raise more funds for the charity there will be a valentine’s charity ball being held on Saturday 18th February at the Radisson Blu hotel, Manchester Airport. Tickets cost £47.50 which includes a three-course meal and entertainment. Tickets are available from Shirley McNally on 0161 288 7355.  

If you aren’t able to attend the event but would still like to donate you can donate to the British Heart Foundation here:
