Dudley Sports have arranged a number of benefit events to support the family in raising money to buy Jude a hydrobath to allow him to be bathed properly.

Jude was born in November 2007 and all seemed to be fine, but in his early weeks the problems started for Jude, originally thought to be colic.

At just 12 weeks old and after weeks of pain, he was diagnosed with brain damage to the left and right side of his brain, resulting in severe epilepsy and cerebral palsy.

The Stourbridge 'All Stars' will be managed by Adam Bastable and amongst the former Stourbridge favourites in action are likely to be Lewis Solly, Tim Nicholls, Ross Collins, James Dyson, Sam Rock, Lee Dimmock, Andy Wells, Craig Slater, Lee Rollason, Lee Bullimore and Damian Whitcombe.

The Dudley Sports squad will be managed by Tony Gore and some more ex-Glassboys are likely to feature in their line-up along with other familiar faces from the local non-league scene.

Please support the event if you can!
