Score Big for Charity: Rotherham United’s FA Cup Match Worn Shirts Up for Grabs in Exclusive Auction Benefiting Rotherham Hospice

Rotherham United, in collaboration with our dedicated sleeve sponsors Star People Recruitment, is generously facilitating the charitable sales of seven match-worn and signed shirts from the Emirates FA Cup Third Round tie at Fulham for the 2023/24 season.

Star People Recruitment, a sister company of Events 4 Healthcare, made this kind donation in support of Rotherham Hospice, showcasing their commitment to giving back to the community. Their branding adorned the Millers’ shirt sleeves during the Craven Cottage tie, and as part of their new commercial agreement with the club, they expressed a desire to raise funds for the Hospice by donating a number of shirts worn during the competition.

The wonderful partnership between Rotherham United, Star People Recruitment, and Charity Stars has paved the way for an online auction featuring the match-worn and signed jerseys. We are thrilled to announce that 100% of the profits from this auction will be directed towards Rotherham Hospice, allowing us to continue our invaluable services within the community.

Last season’s auction, facilitated by the Millers in collaboration with Charity Stars, raised over £2,000. With seven shirts up for auction this year, they are hopeful to surpass that amount and make an even greater impact on the Hospice’s funding needs. The generous donations raised through this initiative will contribute to the staggering £3 million per year required to sustain the Hospice’s essential services.

Rotherham Hospice serves as a comforting, supportive, and dignified environment for our community, especially during life’s most challenging circumstances. The funds raised through this auction will play a vital role in ensuring the continued provision of these crucial services for years to come.

We would also like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our Diamond Partners – AESSEAL, Equisolve, Hughie Construction Ltd, IPM Group, Mears Group, and Steelphalt. Their support enables us to proudly display the Rotherham Hospice logo on our first team shirts throughout the 2023/24 season, thanks to a unique charitable commercial agreement.

Star People, as the strategic recruitment and outsourced partner for pharma, MedTech, and biotech companies, has made this auction possible through their immense generosity. To learn more about Star People and their impactful work, please visit their website [here](insert link).

The match-worn shirts available in this year’s auction include:

  • Arvin Appiah (Match Worn)
  • Tolaji Bola (Match Issued)
  • Tom Eaves (Match Worn)
  • Dexter Lembikisa (Match Worn)
  • Jamie Lindsay (Match Worn)
  • Ollie Rathbone (Match Worn)
  • Seb Revan (Match Worn)

Steve Coakley, Commercial Director at Rotherham United, expressed his gratitude for Star People’s commitment to both the club and the local community: “We want to work with people and businesses whose values align with ours, and Star People has proven to be a fantastic commercial partner. Their selfless gesture in support of Rotherham Hospice will undoubtedly raise a fantastic amount of money.”

We are excited to collaborate with Charity Stars on this project, ensuring that every Millers supporter has the opportunity to contribute to the fundraising online and, in return, potentially acquire one of these unique and cherished match-worn shirts from English football’s oldest cup competition.

We extend our sincere thanks to Star People Recruitment and all involved partners for their generosity and commitment to making a positive impact on the community. Together, we can make a difference, one auction at a time.

The Diamond Partners making a big difference to hospice care in Rotherham

 In June 2023 6 local businesses came together to form the Diamond Partners. In an inspiring act of community spirit AESSEAL, Mears, SteelPhalt, Equisolve, Hughie Construction and IPM Group put Rotherham Hospice on Rotherham United Football Club‘s official 23/24 season football kit.

Rotherham Hospice Director of Income Generation Stephen King explains the difference the Diamond Partners have had 4 months on:

The impact of the partnership has been huge. Rotherham Hospice has never had so much exposure in the local area. We are finding that conversations about the charity are a lot easier to have with businesses and supporters, as most are now aware of who we are and what we do. 

Another huge benefit of this partnership is the increase in corporate support over the past few months. We have had several companies invest in sponsorship opportunities for various events including Light Up A Life & the Christmas Fair. We have also seen an increase in the amount of companies that want to support us as their Charity of the Year.

Everyone at the Hospice is grateful to the Diamond Partners for making this happen. The level of publicity we have received as a result has been something we could not possible have achieved by ourselves.

The number of heart-warming comments supporting the initiative was overwhelming and clearly shows the unfaltering community spirit that Rotherham United fans have for Rotherham Hospice and their local community.

Increased awareness and the support that has brought means we can care for more local families at a time it matters most. So far this year:

Rotherham United proudly supports local Hospice

 In an inspiring act of community spirit, Rotherham United Football Club has unveiled its new 23/24 season official football kit, with Rotherham Hospice taking centre stage! 

Rotherham United Commercial Director Steve Coakley explains: 

“For the forthcoming 2023/24 Sky Bet Championship campaign we were determined to look at doing something different, innovative and community-based because we felt that best represented what Rotherham United is all about.”

Several local businesses came together to form the Diamond Partnership, which funded the sponsorship deal, allowing Rotherham Hospice to reach thousands more people at no cost to the Hospice.  Read more about the Diamond Partnership here.

Rotherham Hospice Director of Income Generation Stephen King adds:

“What makes this even more special is the support of the local businesses who have made this possible. Their generosity means that it will be the Rotherham Hospice sunflower logo sitting proudly on that famous red shirt. The exposure Rotherham Hospice will receive next season is incredible.

Everyone connected to Rotherham Hospice would like to thank Rotherham United for their unbelievable support.

This partnership will not only have a huge impact on our patients, families, volunteers, and staff, it will bring the people of Rotherham together in support of their Hospice.” 

Rotherham Hospice Deputy Clinical Director Jayne Lowe is keen to explain how having  Rotherham Hospice so visible helps:

“Many people may not know what services are available to them when they find themselves or a relative or friend experiencing an end-of-life illness. By having Rotherham Hospice front & centre on the RUFC shirts, we can let people know we exist and are here to help! 

The difference hospice care makes to people’s lives is amazing.

Hospice care is all about making the most of the time you have left. Our community nurses help people stay in their own homes wherever possible, and our In-Patient nurses help with symptom management and giving families a peaceful, calm place to spend time together. All of this we provide free of charge, but only with help from of our amazing supporters like Rotherham United FC!”

Rotherham Hospice would like to thank RUFC Chairman Tony Stewart &  Honorary Life-Time President John Breckin for keeping the Hospice and the Rotherham people close to heart, Commercial Director Steve Coakley for all your hard work in getting this done, all the Diamond Partnership businesses who contributed financially to make it happen and every Miller fan who has helped the Hospice throughout the years.
