Story

I have been involved in the homeless football sessions in Cambridge for several years now and I am aware of the great and vital work that support  services including Wintercomfort offer to their service users. Although football is only a small part of what the support services offer, it is the part I know most about. I have first hand experience of the positive impact it has on improving both physical, mental health and well being. Quote from a service user ' I love our football sessions because I can forget about all the stress and problems that I have for an hour every week whilst playing. It gives me something positive to look forward to for next week'.

BallsTo Homelessness Sleepout - 7th February 2020! This sponsored Sleepout at The Abbey Stadium will raise funds for Wintercomfort a homeless charity based in Cambridge and Cambridge United Community Trust's preventative programmes working with young people Wintercomfort supports men and women who are homeless or vulnerably housed by offering them vital welfare services and opportunities for learning and training.Cambridge United Community Trust is the charitable arm of Cambridge United Football Club.
