Academy players visit homeless shelter

Five Aston Villa Academy youngsters showed their community spirit by visiting a homeless drop-in centre in Digbeth. The club’s youngest ever Premier League player Rushian Hepburn Murphy joined his team-mates and coach and former defender Mark Delaney in a tour of the SIFA Fireside centre to gain an understanding of the services it provides. They also served hot dinners to over 140 homeless people. The next big community event is a special sleep-out on 14 April at Villa Park. Local business and civic lea
