Although George was unable to communicate or speak Clara was able to spend quality time with her dad in his hospital bed and was able to lie next to him in his final days.The Fenlon Football Funday combines two of George’s favourite things, as a dedicated Manchester United fan and a casual football player, a fun loving and happy young man who lived to make people smile and have fun, this funday is the perfect way to pay tribute to him.
