It is with deep regret and sadness that we have been informed that lifelong Hendon supporter Luca Roberts tragically passed away last month after a lengthy battle with mental health issues.

Luca, son of PA man and Supporters Trust board member Bryan, first started attending Hendon matches at the age of 2 at Claremont Road and was a familiar face both home and away over the following 23 years.

Luca's family are hoping to use a forthcoming home league fixture as an opportunity to celebrate his life at a club that he loved whilst raising funds for Hendon's mental health charity partners.

The thoughts of everyone connected with the club are with Bryan, Luca's brother Finn and his family and friends at this difficult time.
