Leeds United announce continued support for local cancer charity with Nottingham Forest clash gesture

Leeds United have announced that they will once again be showing their support for World Cancer Day with the club's official charity partner Yorkshire Cancer Research.

With World Cancer Day falling every year on February 4, the Whites will take the opportunity to wear branded t-shirts during their warm-ups at City Ground tomorrow afternoon when they travel down to Nottingham Forest.

World Cancer Day is celebrated each year to raise awareness of how to unite and defeat cancer, bringing communities together to highlight how we can detect cancers quicker, prevent them and treat them - things that Yorkshire Cancer Research work to bring local communities around the club all year round.

In a post on the club's website, they confirmed that they will also be dedicating one of the upcoming matches at Elland Road to the charity, with the club setting up activities on the day of the match to raise further awareness.

They continue to write: "The club have continued to work closely with the local charity over the course of the 2022/23 season, sharing personal stories, providing once-in-a-lifetime experiences for families who have been affected by the disease, and allowing supporters who are suffering with cancer to make special memories that they can remember forever."
