Casuals and K's join together to support their community

Ground-sharing Corinthian-Casuals and Kingstonian will battle for three points and local bragging rights on 22nd December- but the rivals will also be working together to support their local community.

The two clubs have each selected a borough-based charity to support; Kingston Churches Action on Homelessness (KCAH) and Kingston Carers Network (KCN)- and are asking all supporters to donate food and/or clothing on the day. In return they'll be given a mince pie, entered into a prize draw, and then served a Christmas feast of football!

KCAH –who provide help to the homeless- have requested item(s) from the following list:
​

• Pot Noodles
• Tea / Coffee / Sugar
• Used men's coats / jackets
• New or clean 'used' sleeping bags but must be in their sleeves
• New or used rucksacks (ideally 60L so a sleeping bag can comfortably fit)
• New men's 'trunks' underwear (Size M or L)
• New socks

Further fundraising events will help support KCN – Kingstonian’s local community partners who are based in Tolworth Broadway. They provide support to more than 3,000 adult carers and over 700 young carers from the Kingston Borough through a wide range of services.

The afternoon will be a celebration of local sport and supplemented with a variety of food and stalls, for those last minute Christmas gift ideas. Following the match, there will be a fan’s ‘crossbar challenge’ and guests will be invited to the ‘after party’ with live entertainment in a festive family atmosphere.

Gates open at 1pm and the football kicks off at 3pm. Admission is £10 adults, £6 concessions (Over 60’s). Students, with valid ID can enter for £4 and Under 18s, with accompanying adult are FREE.

King George’s Arena is located along Hook Rise South, Tolworth just 10 minutes’ walk from the Broadway. Postcode is KT6 7NA.
