Invites terminally ill girl to concert
Sheeran invites terminally ill woman Channan Petrides and her friend backstage at Wembley Arena in London to fulfill her dream of seeing Sheeran perform.
He was so lovely and genuine, he had a great sense of humour and was really easy to get on with. He signed my programme and we took some selfies together. He smelt amazing. A few months ago, I was so unwell I was worried if I’d ever make it to Ed Sheeran’s gig, but I did and it was incredible and I also got to meet him backstage. My life is now complete.
Youth center project
Sheeran buys a police station, to convert into a youth center, for his home town of Framlingham, Suffolk. Sheeran has spent more than £1 million on the home town that he credits for getting him started in music. His dream is to retire in his home town and give back by running the community center.
