Goodison To Light Up In Alfie Evans' Memory

Goodison Park will be illuminated in blue and purple on Sunday 28 April as the Club marks one year since young Evertonian Alfie Evans passed away.

The Dixie Dean statue and the Sir Philip Carter Park Stand will be lit up in Alfie's memory.

Alfie’s parents Tom and Kate, along with members of their family, will hold a vigil at the Dixie statue.

Alfie was just 23 months old when he passed away, having spent more than a year in hospital with a rare neurological condition.

The Club and Everton in the Community is currently supporting Tom and Kate with their plans to form a charitable foundation in Alfie’s name, with more information to be released in due course.
