It’s finally time… and we can’t wait to welcome you all back!

After taking a year off, The Big Charity Match returns on Friday 28th August, and we’d absolutely love to see as many of you there as possible.

Over the last four events, together we’ve raised thousands of pounds for charity, brought hundreds of people together, and created some incredible memories both on and off the pitch. Every year the support from this community has blown us away, and we honestly couldn’t do it without you.

This year we’re hoping to make it our biggest and best event yet.

❤️ This year’s event will be raising money for two fantastic causes:

* Macmillan Cancer Support
* CAMPS International, helping to fund ethical volunteer expeditions that make a lasting impact in communities around the world.

Whether you’re coming to cheer on the players, spend time with family and friends, enjoy the BBQ, have a drink, buy a raffle ticket or simply support the charities, every single person who comes along helps make a difference.
