A special NSPCC Celebrity All Stars made up of well known faces from our screens and sporting world, joined together as a team to take part in a charity football tournament held by Microsoft in aid of the NSPCC at the world renowned Wembley Stadium.
The NSPCC All Stars - who won the knock-out football tournament - included ambassador Amir Khan.
Long standing NSPCC celebrity supporter Alec Stewart captained the victorious side and also gave a speech about the work of the NSPCC at the post-match reception. He said:
“It’s fantastic and a real honour to have the chance to play football at Wembley with such an amazing team of NSPCC supporters. As far as I’m concerned, all those who join forces to help stop the bullying and abuse of young people are a premiere side.”

The NSPCC All Stars competed against teams of Microsoft agencies, partners and employees for a breathtaking 90-minutes to emerge victorious after playing, and winning, three successive 15 minute matches. They raised the cup in a special presentation at the end of the tournament.
Microsoft is one of the NSPCC's long-standing corporate supporters with a partnership that has been running for over 10 years. They have helped the NSPCC raise in excess of £11million for our work with some of the UK's most vulnerable children. They are also one of the founding partners of the New Wembley Stadium and arranged the football tournament. Partners and agencies all paid to play and raised over £50,000, including match funding from Microsoft.
