Leicester City Football legends Steve Walsh and Matt Elliott Serve Christmas Dinner At Falcon Centre

15 Dec 2025

Two Leicester City legends Steve Walsh and Matt Elliott, dropped by our Falcon Centre this Christmas to serve a special festive dinner and hand out presents from Leicester City.

Defenders Walsh and Elliott, who between them have over 700 Foxes appearances to their name, are well known to our service users and have visited us to deliver coaching sessions.

Christmas can be a hard time for some, so to help out this month, Walshy and Matty were on hand to serve Christmas dinner and hand out LCFC gifts, all while mingling with those being supported by the Falcon Centre and celebrating the festive season.

Elliott said: “It’s been a privilege to come down to see the guys again and share a bit of Christmas spirit. Walshy and I have built a rapport with both the staff and the participants, so it’s a pleasure to be here to celebrate the festive season with them all.

“They do brilliant work at the Falcon Centre, so anything we can do to lend a hand, we’ll be there to do so. We had good fun with everyone and usually, wherever there’s free food, you’ll find me lurking around, but in all seriousness, it was brilliant to be here to represent the Club and support the fantastic work of the Falcon Centre.”
