Celebs have charity kickabout for Alzheimer's UK

Hundreds of people gathered to watch a celebrity football match that raised money for dementia prevention, treatment and care.

Reality TV star Calum Best and This City Is Ours actor James Nelson-Joyce were among those who played at Southampton's St Mary's stadium on Thursday.

The team captained by actor and presenter Joe Swash won the match 9 - 5 in front of about 700 fans.

All proceeds from the event have gone towards the charity Alzheimer's UK.

Charlie Quirke took part in the charity game and said: "It's an absolute privilege to be involved in such an important cause."

The actor, best known for playing Travis Stubbs in the ITV sitcom Birds of a Feather, and son of actress Pauline Quirke, added: "Alzheimer's affects so many families across the country, and when you have the opportunity to use your platform to make a real difference, you simply have to take it.

"The fact we can do this at the iconic St Mary's Stadium makes it even more special."
