Kevin Keegan OBE is a former footballer and manager, and much loved hero of the England team. Twice the winner of the Ballon d’Or, he famously played for Liverpool and Newcastle United amongst others, before moving into management and even enjoying a spell as the England manager.

In support of Cancer Research, North Lancs Training Group will be holding an exclusive Sportsperson’s Dinner featuring special guest, Kevin Keegan on Friday 4th November, at the Mercure Dunkenhalgh Hotel in Accrington. To boost the funds raised for Cancer Research, a prize raffle and a live auction will be held. The evening’s entertainment will continue with top comedian Josh Daniels.

Sponsors are being sought, and the gold package includes a champagne reception, personal meet and greet with Kevin Keegan, a sponsor photograph with Kevin Keegan which will be framed and sent to you following the dinner, prime seating, entry into the sponsors draw and your company details featured in the programme.

Gareth Lindsay, Managing Director of NLTG, commented: “Kevin Keegan is well loved by many, and he’s had a really interesting career – I can’t wait to hear his stories. This will be a great night, and I encourage people to get in touch to book the remaining few tables – then we can raise a fantastic amount for Cancer Research too!”
