LFC FoundationNiamh Fahey and Sue Johnston join John Bishop for Kip on the Kop 2026
Former LFC Women's captain Niamh Fahey and acclaimed local actress and lifelong Reds Sue Johnston have agreed to swap their beds and take part in the annual Kip on the Kop event.
The pair will join supporters on the Kop on September 26, alongside comedian John Bishop and former players Sammy Lee, Natasha Dowie, Becky Easton and Chris Kirkland.
Anfield's Kop stand will transform into a sleepout venue for the fourth-year running, with participants spending the night at the home of the Reds to raise vital funds for people affected by homelessness across the city region.
Last year, more than 400 people took part in Kip on the Kop, raising £119,575, and learning more about the realities faced by people experiencing homelessness and making a difference through fundraising.
Sign up here to take part in this year’s Kip on the Kop, or to find out more and donate.
Supporters can currently claim 25% off registration using the code TAKE25LFC.
As a thank you, anyone who raises £250 or more by 30 October 2026 will automatically be entered into a prize draw to win a signed Joe Gomez Liverpool FC shirt.
Entrants must be aged 16 or over, anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
Funds raised this year will go directly to two established local programmes, the LFC Foundation's Pathway to Works programme and the outreach and wellbeing work delivered by Liverpool Homeless FC (LHFC.)
The impact of the two organisations can be seen in the journeys of two former LHFC participants who have since gone on to secure paid employment with LHFC, in roles supported by funding raised through Kip on the Kop. Both individuals have experienced homelessness and first came to LHFC through its support services, showing how access to support, opportunities and meaningful work can help people move forward in their lives.
With support from the LFC Foundation, LHFC now engages close to 4,000 individuals, offering a route out of isolation through football, companionship and structured support.
