💚Billy’s London Marathon Challenge for Great Oaks Hospice 🏃♂️💚
On Sunday, Lydbrook AFC came together to support Billy and his incredible London Marathon fundraising challenge for Great Oaks Hospice.
The day kicked off with an inter-house friendly, where two teams from the club faced off in a charity football match – all in support of Billy’s fundraising efforts. In the evening, the generosity continued with a quiz night, helping to boost the total even further.
We’re delighted to share that the day was a huge success, raising an amazing £1,025 for our hospice! 🙌
A massive thank you to Billy, Lydbrook AFC, and everyone who supported the day – whether you played, donated, attended the quiz, or cheered from the sidelines. Your support truly makes a difference. 💚
