A fundraising basketball match in honour of a mother gone too soon will take place this month.

Shelley Anne Bevan, who passed away aged just 37 in March 2022, will be honoured with a charity basketball match this June.

In June 2022, £2,150 was raised for her two children, in a charity basketball match at Reddish Vale Basketball Centre.

The same venue will host another fundraiser this month, on June 24 at 7:30pm.

The event is taking place in Stockport because she played basketball in a national league for our town in her youth.

Everyone that is participating in the match will donate £10. Additionally, spectators - be it members of the public or family and friends - can also donate.

Money raised will go to her children - a boy and girl aged 16 and 13 respectively - and their future.
