This is our second year running and as per last year, we are aiming to raise money for as many of The Indee Rose Trust’s treasure boxes as possible, to create positive memories for children on their journey ?My Grandad, William (Bill) Dunks, was a very respected man within Canvey Island and had built a reputation for himself locally through football.
Bill was a typical young boy growing up in North London, playing football in the streets and at Hackney Marshes on a Sunday. Bill then went on to become an Arsenal Youth player in 1962.
In 1970, Bill and Val move to Canvey as newly weds. After a couple of years of settling down, Bill began to manage his first team on Canvey… the rest is history.
Bill’s football life spanned many years and overtime, he became a mentor for so many people. Someone for a lot of young people to look up to.
This match is to honour his life in football and for us to give to the community, just like he always did ❤️
We have decided to utilise this event to raise funds for The Indee Rose Trust as it is a charity that is much loved and recognised within the local community. Family members of Indee Rose are also friends of the Dunks’ and so this means a great deal to us.
Please show your support on the day and if you are unable to make it, we would be grateful for your donation via this page! ?
