JT posted the note on Instagram with the caption: “I received a letter today from John Beard who I sent a signed photo to back in 2015.
“He was at a very low point in his life. I sent him a simple signed photo, a few words of encouragement and wished him well with his recovery.
“Today I received this letter from John, which has absolutely made my day.
“Football and the world of sport can be so powerful. I will be donating your £10 to @makeawishuk”.
Terry has been widely praised on Instagram for his actions and will now turn his focus back to Villa’s relegation battle.
