Pupils kick off heartfelt fundraising tribute to late footie coach Patrick
Blackpool Gazette
|September 01, 2025
Pupils from Lytham's St Peter's Catholic Primary School kicked off a series of football matches that were the highlight of a soccer-themed summer fair organised in tribute to former school site manager and girls' football coach Patrick McCready.
Patrick lost his life to cancer last December, so to celebrate his life and the impact he had on the St Peter's community, the school decided to honour his memory through the sport Patrick loved.
Among those to attend the fair, which raised £2,175.94 for charity Rosemere Cancer Foundation, were Patrick's widow Sue McCready and other members of his family, some of whom had travelled cross-country to be there.
