Over 21,500 people have been reported to have lost their lives and thousands more injured, and the thoughts of all at Luton Town Football Club are with everyone affected by the tragedy.

Through the EFL's official charity partnership with the British Red Cross, the league is supporting the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) Appeal to help those impacted by the devastating earthquake.

To help raise awareness and as a mark of respect to those who have tragically lost their lives, Luton Town and Coventry City players - along with all other EFL clubs at their fixtures this weekend - will wear black armbands and hold a minute’s silence before kick-off at the Coventry Building Society Arena.
