WATCH: Celtic Juniors stand in solidarity with Ukraine

Stalybridge Celtic's Bower Fold was a hive of activity on Saturday, as the stadium was used to host a charity football match between Stalybridge Celtic Juniors and their coaches

The event was created in a bid to raise funds for Save the Children amid the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

As well as a toy raffle, attendees have also enjoyed some tasty treats, including popcorn, candy floss, burgers and hot dogs, kindly provided by Bower Fold Events.

We captured some of the action. There will be a report of the afternoon In next week's Reporter.
