Nathan Burton was tragically killed last year

The match will kick off at Wednesfield Football Club at 1pm and there will be food available, music from a DJ and fundraising raffles.

Nathan Burton, 27, was found seriously injured at a property in Moseley in April 2021 and died in hospital the following day.

Nathan, from Wednesfield, worked for BT and as a tribute fellow workers lined a street in his honour on the day of his funeral.

Players in the match are being asked to donate £10 and tickets for the event, which starts at noon and finishes at 6pm, are £5.

All the profits from the fundraiser will go to Victim Support.
