Henrik's Story

Little Henrik loved nothing more than playing football, in fact, when he did his smile would light up a whole stadium. He had the world at this feet, and was the toast of Scotland, then Spain and of course Sweden. But as Henrik got older his feet weren't as fast as they once were and soon people soon began to forget about him. He found himself discarded, alone, forced to leave the bright lights behind to return to his humble beginnings.

Now he spends his days selling hoovers door-to-door for his former Swedish team-mate, who we can't name for legal reasons, but he's fat, used to play for Leeds United and also had a short-lived shoe business.

You can do your bit to help Henrik smile again. After all, having made so many others happy for years, he deserves it.
