Albany Care Home in Headington proudly announced the success of their recent Summer Fete, where they raised £200 in support of Oxford United Walking Football Club. The funds will be used to sponsor the club’s upcoming Walkathon, a 24-hour walking challenge in aid of children with Down’s Syndrome.
Supporting local charities and causes
The Summer Fete was a vibrant and well-attended event, with residents, staff, and the local community coming together to support a cause close to their hearts. The £200 raised will directly contribute to the Walking Football Club’s efforts to make a positive impact in the lives of children with Down’s Syndrome, while also helping to promote the benefits of walking football.
