VIDEO: Lionesses star Chloe Kelly joins Jill Scott and Jamie Redknapp in showing support for inspiring 'March of the Day' initiative which aims to raise awareness of motor neurone disease

The trek, dubbed 'March of the Day', has been led by former footballers Stephen Darby and Marcus Stewart, who both suffer from MND, a rare condition affecting the brain and nerves. It started in Bradford on Friday, Darby having spent five years playing for Bradford City, and ends at Anfield, with him having come through the Liverpool youth system.

Darby is married to Manchester City defender and former England captain Steph Houghton, and the support of Kelly and Jill Scott on this walk is just the latest example of how her team-mates have got behind the pair over the years.

The Cityzens' players wore 'March of the Day' t-shirts in the warm-up for Saturday's Manchester derby while Georgia Stanway, who played with Houghton at City for seven years before moving to Bayern Munich, is a patron of the Darby Rimmer MND Foundation.

Kelly and Scott are just a couple of the many famous faces who have come out to support the cause over the weekend. Ex-Liverpool duo Jamie Redknapp and Chris Kirkland were also involved on Monday, while former Manchester United stars Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt joined the trek on Sunday.

'March of the Day' has already raised over £130,000 and the support of players like Kelly, Scott and more are sure to help that number grow as the trek comes to its conclusion in Liverpool.
