Story

Cove FC Under 8s are taking on the Guildford 5km Inflatable Fun Run to raise money for Brightest Stars.

Brightest Stars was set up in memory of Mike Rowell, who was Daddy to one of our own Under 8 players. Mike tragically lost his life in a skiing accident when his son was just four years old. The charity supports children who have experienced the devastating loss of a parent or sibling, providing vital bereavement support in many different forms.

Led by two of our brilliant football coaches, Chelsee Benson and Kate MacLaren, our Under 8s will be bouncing, running and rolling their way around 5km of giant inflatables – all to raise funds for this very special cause, which means so much to our Cove FC family.

Any donation, big or small, will help Brightest Stars continue supporting children when they need it most. Thank you so much for your support 💛
