The Annual Dan Kay Memorial Trophy

We are raising money in memory of Dan Kay, the Liverpool ECHO journalist and Hillsborough campaigner who died in May aged 45.

The funds raised will be split between three charities close to Dan and his family; An Hour for Others, Imagine If Trust and Mind. Dan was a committed volunteer and fundraiser for An Hour for Others and Imagine If Trust, which are both based in Liverpool.

Dan worked at the ECHO from 2003-2021 across news and sport and was a universally popular member of the team. He was a driving force within the campaign for justice over Hillsborough both in his personal life and with the ECHO - where he was central to the coverage that stemmed from the disaster, most poignantly of the inquests that led to the ruling the 97 innocent men, women and children who lost their lives as a result of the tragedy were unlawfully killed.

Dan's friends and family are turning out at the inaugural Annual Dan Kay Memorial Trophy to celebrate Dan, his life and his legacy while raising vital funds.
