Spurs Legends Fundraising Event: A Night to Remember for Mental Health Support

Updated: 6 days ago

In a heartfelt display of support and community spirit, Dublin Spurs, spearheaded by the dedicated Mags Malloy, recently hosted a fundraising event that not only celebrated the legendary players of the 1984 UEFA Cup-winning team but also emphasized the vital mission of mental health awareness. A huge thank you goes out to Dublin Spurs and Mags for their relentless efforts in bringing this unforgettable evening to life.


The event marked the 40th anniversary of that remarkable victory, promising an engaging night filled with nostalgia, laughter, and a meaningful impact. Notable players from the iconic team graced the occasion, including Paul Miller, Tony Galvin, and Mark Falco. David Howells took on the role of compère, ensuring that everyone felt valued and entertained throughout the night.


With excitement buzzing, my sister Michelle and her husband Lee travelled to Dublin, not just to enjoy the festivities but also to represent Legends on the Bench. Their attendance showed appreciation of the support we are given by Dublin Spurs for our cause, particularly within the football community.


The atmosphere during the event was electric. The enthusiasm from the Irish crowd was infectious, as fans lined up to meet their heroes. Attendees exchanged autographs, snapped photos, and shared laughter. The collective joy of connecting with past legends resonated deeply with everyone present.

Adding to the joyous spirit, a lively sing-along broke out, showcasing the vibrant Irish culture. The appearance of a legendary voice of Spurs elevated the atmosphere, allowing for memorable moments for all in attendance.


Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of everyone involved, the evening raised an impressive £2,989. Additional funds are expected from future raffle draws, resulting in a significant contribution toward mental health projects. This amount is nearly sufficient to fund two new benches for our community initiatives, directly impacting those who need it most.



Mags Malloy and Dublin Spurs have demonstrated the extraordinary capabilities of the football community. The heartfelt contributions from attendees, combined with the star power of these legendary players, created an event that resonated with many people. For our charity, the support received from events like this is invaluable. Not only does it enhance resources for mental health initiatives, but it also connects inspiring stories of hope and resilience to those who need them most.

A heartfelt thank you once more to Dublin Spurs, Mags Malloy, and everyone involved in this remarkable event. Your unwavering dedication and support for our Charity ensure that the message of Mental Health Awareness and Suicide Prevention continues to grow. Together, we are making a difference, let’s be the difference we want to see. 💙💙
