It is the aim of Great Oaks Hospice to offer care and support to adults with a life limiting illness.
☀️ Christmas in July? Absolutely! ☀️🎄
We may only be halfway through summer, but Christmas is already making an appearance at Great Oaks Hospice! We've already had people enquiring about and booking their places for our Christmas Party Nights at Bells Hotel & Country Club. 🎉
And it's easy to see why! Last year, our Christmas events raised an incredible £16,000 to help support the care and services provided by Great Oaks Hospice. 💚
Whether you're planning a festive night out with friends, family or colleagues, booking early means you'll secure your preferred date and help make a real difference to local people and their families.
✨ Great nights out, festive fun and support for local hospice care all wrapped into one.

Tomorrow, Lydbrook Athletic Football Club will host their annual Andrew Ward Football Tournament. It’s always a wonderfully supported day, held in memory of a truly lovely man.
We’d like to say a heartfelt thank you to Lydbrook Athletic Football Club for choosing to raise money for Great Oaks, and to all the players taking part tomorrow. 💚⚽The Andrew Ward Cup 2026 begins at 10am tomorrow with the first group game kicking off at 10 and the final set to kick off little after 2pm.
We look forward to welcoming the 12 teams who have entered this year’s tournament tomorrow for what is set to be another great day of local football in memory of our good friend, Wardy. As a football club we would like to express our thanks to all of the forest football clubs who have entered this year’s tournament.
12 teams have entered, 120 local players all competing in a day of forest football, battling it out in a unique tournament in honour of Andrew Ward. English Bicknor won it in 2024, Broadwell lifted the trophy last year, who will be crowned winners this year?
The BBQ will be fired up from 9:30am with bacon rolls, burgers & hot dogs being served all day as well as a cold drinks and ice creams.
We look forward to welcoming family, friends, players and spectators down with us tomorrow for what is sure to be a great day of local football for two great charities.
