She also aims to project the message that football culture stands united against domestic violence, and hope that the event will unite fans, clubs, and players at all levels of the nation’s favourite game to help raise vital funds for Women’s Aid.
Charlie’s Big Challenge will begin from Sunday 26th January 2014; Charlie will be starting at Everton’s Goodison Park in Liverpool, and finishing at West Ham United, Boleyn Ground. She will be visiting Coventry Sphinx’s grounds at Sphinx Drive on Thursday 30th January 2014 (day 5), which will be approximately 179.8 miles into her journey.

Coventry Sphinx are honoured to be part of this incredible effort that Charlie has undertaken and as the only non league club we will ensure that she has a welcome to be proud of.
