The 30th anniversary of the Bradford fire disaster will be marked with a minute's silence ahead of Watford's Championship visit to Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday.
All matches in the Football League and Premier League across the weekend will pause to remember the 56 supporters who lost their lives and the hundreds who were injured in the fire at Valley Parade on May 11, 1985.
The occasion coincides with the Bantams' final home game of the season, when the Yorkshire outfit traditionally mark the anniversary.
Hornets supporters can support the continued efforts of the Plastic Surgery and Burns Research Unit (PSBRU) at the University of Bradford by donating online.
Donations can also be posted to the Plastic Surgery and Burns Research Unit, University of Bradford, Richmond Road, Bradford, West Yorkshire, BD7 1DP.
It is also possible to donate by text message. Simply text VPFA56 followed by the chosen amount to 70070. e.g. To donate £5, simply text VPFA56 5 to 70070.
