IN the build up to the Son-Rise Cup there is a football festival being held at Bedford Square on Saturday, April 20.

There will be an inflatable football pitch and barbecue, along with the Son Rise Cup mascot and raffle with amazing prizes for the 2013 event which include signed football memorabilia, and a Hogsbottom hamper.

Sponsors Mansbridge and Balment and Specsavers will be joining in to kick start the Son-Rise festival itself over the weekend of May 18 and 19.

Everyone is welcome to attend on the day and enjoy the fun.

The Son-Rise Cup promotes disability football and raises autism awareness.
