Club charities Presstalk 17 Cambridge University Press Football Club is now in it’s fifth season of supporting local charities, with Romsey Mill our designated charity for the 2012/13 season for the second year running. The previous three seasons has seen us raise over £2,000 for our selected charities. In 2008/2009 season our charity was the Teenage Cancer Trust , in 2009/2010 the Cystic Fibrosis Trust and last season we supported Red Balloon Learner Centres . CUP FC raises money in a number of ways - we have donated 50p from every paid admission to our first team home matches, as well as holding a Christmas and Easter draw. We were also able to host a charity day, where admission to the ground was free and spectators could donate a fee to our charity. Our First team wear the club charity on their playing kit in place of the traditional sponsor, with an aim to raise awareness of the charity in the East Anglian area, whilst the reserve and A team’s also carry a previous sponsors logo on their shirts. Romsey Mill is a Christian charity committed to overcoming disadvantage, challenging injustice and promoting social inclusion with young people, children and families. We work with around 2500 people each year, including: young mothers and fathers, young people on the margins of society who may be involved in offending, young people struggling to engage fully with education, families with pre-school children, young people with an autistic spectrum condition who have few social Opportunities. Our work is long term, relational and needs-led. We work with participants to develop their skills and to enable their progress towards training, work and positive involvement in the community. Romsey Mill is a Sure Start Children’s Centre, offering a full programme of support for families and carers with chil - dren up to five-years-old.
