Football legend Emile Heskey supports Rainbows

Footballing legend Emile Heskey will take centre stage for one night only to share life stories and raise funds for Rainbows.

An Evening with Emile Heskey will be held at the 360 Bar & Grill, Nottingham, on Thursday 9 October at 6pm.

The former England, Leicester and Liverpool player will talk about his career and take part in a Q&A. There will also be the opportunity for photos and autographs on the night.

Emile, who is a director at Octavian Group – a company which also supports Rainbows, said: “I’m looking forward to the evening at 360 Bar & Grill and having the chance to share some of my stories both on and off the pitch. Rainbows does incredible work in supporting babies, children, young people and their families through the most difficult times, and I’m proud to be able to play a part in raising awareness and funds for the charity.”

During the exclusive evening, Indian sharing platters will be served at the tables to enjoy. Sukhi Ghuman, owner of 360 Bar & Grill, said: “We’re honoured to be hosting this special evening with Emile Heskey in support of Rainbows. Combining our twist on Indian cuisine with the presence of a football legend for such a meaningful cause is something we’re truly proud of.

“At 360 Bar & Grill, we believe in giving back to our community, and this event is an opportunity to make a real difference for babies, children, young people and their families.”

Melanie Bodaly, Partnership Development and Events Manager at Rainbows, said: “This promises to be a fabulous event with engaging entertainment from Emile and wonderful food. It is a must for England, Leicester and Liverpool fans, and we are delighted that Emile is helping to support us.

“Thank you also to 360 Bar & Grill for providing the venue and delicious cuisine. Without our supporters, we wouldn’t be able to help our families make memories together to treasure forever.

“Tickets are selling fast and we hope people will come along and support us.”
