As part of their wider charitable commitments Crystal Palace players have decided to donate their match-worn shirts from Sunday’s Liverpool clash (January 23rd) to raise funds for unwell children’s play equipment at Croydon University Hospital.

The shirts are now available to bid on, meaning you can get your hands on a truly unique piece of Palace history while supporting a wonderful cause.

All shirts are signed and proceeds raised by the auction will go straight to Croydon’s Power of Play appeal, funding playgrounds, toys and games for children receiving medical treatment.

It’s easy to bid. All you have to do is click here now, choose the shirt you hope to own, place your bid and get started.

Palace captain Luka Milivojević said on behalf of the team: “As a team we are really proud to be able to support Croydon’s Power of Play appeal. Many of us are parents ourselves, and we know when a child is sick it’s the small things that can help take their mind off feeling unwell.

“We want to thank our fans, and anyone else who is able to make a bid on our matchday shirts and raise money for this cause. The money raised will go towards making the lives of these children in hospital a little easier.”

Elaine Clancy, Chief Nurse at Croydon Health Services NHS Trust said: “We’re incredibly grateful to Crystal Palace F.C. and all of the players for their generosity. I know that many of our staff and our patients are avid Palace fans, so we’re all very excited to see how much we can raise through this shirt auction.

“These match-worn shirts are truly one of a kind, signed by the players who face Liverpool F.C. on Sunday, 23rd January. As well as being a great collector’s item, we hope fans will see the auction as an opportunity to get behind our Power of Play appeal and help us to raise funds for exciting and therapeutic play spaces for young people who are being cared for in hospital.”

The auction closes on Sunday, February 6th, so you’ll have to act fast – don’t miss out and bid here!
