INTRODUCTION

This May 30th, Joseph’s Smile will host a spectacular charity football match as Chris Coleman and Michu lead teams of football legends and celebrities from across Wales and Europe for a special Wales v Europe showdown at Swansea City Football Club - all in support of childhood cancer awareness.

 

In 2024, Joseph’s Smile brought the Swansea.com Stadium to life with a hugely successful Wales v England charity match in partnership with Bradley Lowery Foundation, featuring Chris Coleman, Sol Campbell, Ashley Williams, Jazz Richards, Joe Ledley, Leon Britton and many more, alongside a brilliant lineup of celebrities. The atmosphere was unforgettable, with tens of thousands raised for the charities, and we are thrilled to return with an even bigger event for 2026!

This year’s fixture celebrates the 10 year anniversary of Wales’ historic Euro 2016 run, while raising vital awareness and funds for the work Joseph’s Smile carries out for children with cancer. The match will also support five local childhood cancer charities and campaigns, strengthening the impact across Wales.

Why are we doing this?

Every day in the UK, 10 children and young people are diagnosed with cancer - a life-changing and devastating reality. Two of those children will not survive. For many who do, the long-term effects of treatment can last a lifetime. Despite this, childhood cancer remains significantly underrepresented in public awareness. 

But this May, with your support, that changes. 

 

This match will shine a powerful spotlight on the realities faced by children with cancer. Both teams will wear kits inspired by the gold ribbon, the international symbol of childhood cancer awareness - honouring our young warriors, ensuring their voices are heard, and calling for change. 

 

On this website, you’ll find: 

  • Photos and highlights from 2024’s unforgettable match 

  • Sponsorship opportunities for businesses and supporters 

  • Ticket links to secure your place at this year’s event 

  • Essential matchday information, released closer to kick-off 

 

Join us for an incredible day of football, unity and hope - help us raise awareness, celebrate courage, and stand with children and families affected by cancer all over Wales and the UK.

 

Together, we will make the stadium shine gold for our young warriors - because Kids Get Cancer Too

About Joseph’s Smile

From Heartbreak to Hope

 

Joseph’s Smile was founded in August 2022 in loving memory of three-year-old Joseph Yeandle, who passed away from neuroblastoma in 2021.

Our mission is simple yet powerful: to give families the time, hope, and help they need when their child is diagnosed with cancer.
