Season 2 - Episode 1 - Tom Hill's Fundraiser

Season 2, Ep. 1

In this heartfelt episode, host Millie Heath sits down with Tom, a college student from Sheffield United Community College who’s taking action to support a young footballer named Archie, recently diagnosed with cancer. Together, they discuss the upcoming charity football event, the importance of community involvement, and how everyone can play their part in raising both funds and awareness.


Tom shares the story behind the fundraiser, the plans for the charity match at Forge Valley School, and the incredible response from players, families, and supporters. Millie and Tom also explore how cancer affects young people and their loved ones, highlighting why community-driven events like this matter so deeply.

If you’d like to help make a difference, you can take part in the match, join in the family activities on the day, or donate directly to support Archie and his family.
