Tribute to Stix Lockwood
When I first email Stix to enquire if Leeds United may be able to help the charity I volunteer for, I was overwhelmed when I received a call from Stix himself. He was extremely interested in the work that the (Hornsea) National Coast Watch Station provided to the community. Without hesitation he offered to help in our fund-raising activities. Firstly, inviting us to Elland Road to collect a signed pair of Liam Copper boots.
Then he helps us again during the covid crisis, arranging for us to have and sell a poppy shirt, match worn by Jack Harrison.
To further help with the successful sale, he informed the Leeds United fan base in one of their publications that the shirt had been released for sale.
The funds we raised from the sale of that shirt literally kept the lights on for us.
He is without doubt a kind and caring individual, his desire to help a diverse set of organisations is evident.
Thank you, Stix.
