EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the festive season of 1986 in Middlesbrough. The image captures a group of kind-hearted footballers, including the renowned Bernie Slaven, as they spread joy and cheer at Middlesbrough General Hospital. With wide smiles on their faces, these athletes can be seen handing out presents donated by compassionate Teessiders to children who were spending Christmas in the hospital. This touching display of generosity is part of the Evening Gazette's Give a Little appeal, which aimed to bring some much-needed happiness to young patients during the holiday season. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, it becomes evident that charity and community spirit have always been an integral part of Middlesbrough's identity. The scene is filled with warmth and compassion as these footballers take time out of their busy schedules to make a difference in these children's lives. Their selfless act serves as a reminder that even small gestures can have a profound impact on those who need it most. As we reflect on this photograph nearly four decades later, it stands as a testament to the power of giving during Christmas time. It reminds us that amidst all the festivities and celebrations, there are individuals who dedicate themselves to spreading joy and making sure no child feels forgotten or alone during such special moments.
