Sam Thompson successfully completed a grueling five-day, 260-mile Soccer Aid challenge, raising over £1.5 million for Unicef by delivering the Soccer Aid match ball from Stamford Bridge in London to Old Trafford in Manchester. Despite suffering a severe calf injury early in the journey and enduring harsh weather conditions, Thompson persisted by running marathons and cycling as advised by medical professionals. His determination and progress garnered widespread support from celebrities, friends, and the public, culminating in an emotional finish where he was greeted by family and praised by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, who called his efforts inspiring. Donations were further boosted by matching contributions from the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation and an anonymous donor.

After the challenge, Thompson expressed deep gratitude for the support and donations, emphasizing the impact the funds will have on children in need.
