KEVIN BEATTIE FOUNDATION
Kevin Beattie was one of Ipswich Town’s greatest players of all time, an England International and considered by none other than Sir Bobby Robson as the best England player he had seen.
Kevin sadly passed away in 2018 but he always wanted his name to help others in years to come.
This Foundation has been established to keep his name and legacy alive but, more importantly, to raise awareness of certain illnesses and wellbeing and raising funds for charities!
