Events held in aid of CFK from 2006 - 2009

Skillful Soccer Festival July 2008

Skilful Soccer Football held a festival weekend and was a great success and – despite the weather – helped raise a massive £842 for Cystic Fibrosis Kids. Football tournaments for the children were held, whilst fundraising went on including a bouncy castle, raffle, BBQ, Hook the Duck and the usual fete type activities. Local shops and businesses helped donate prizes. Skilful Soccer Schools coach over a thousand local children during approximately 40 hours of coaching sessions per week. They work with local Sports Partnerships and schools to provide a well-respected service in coaching football and multi sports activities to the 3 – 13 year old age range.

B and Q Collection Weekends 2007

In 2007, B and Q chose the CF Trust for their collection weekends, and in addition kindly let CFK us use their Havant & Fratton stores to do 4 collection weekends. From just those weekends we raised a massive £4010! In addition to this, they paid one their employees, Bryce Duff (Uncle to Vicky Coxhead’s CF children), to take a year off work and he ran 1000 miles and 7 continents to raise money for the CF Trust and CFK.

Great South Run and Junior South Run.

The Great South and Junior South Run happens every year in Southsea. Thousands of people enter, and many raise money for a charity of their choice. We have been lucky enough to have many supporters running for our cause, if you would like to take part in the Great or Junior South Run, please click here.

Steve White's - The Chairman of CFK's 40th birthday.

The day in June was a fun day with bouncy castles, dance shows, live music, art and craft stalls, shops and the like. We also had wrestling shows and art workshops. The day climaxed with a street dance show. in the evening 4 local bands played until 2am, then we had DJ's playing till the sun came up. the evening was chargeable to attend and the total sum raised was £2500 for CFK. a very long and tiring but very rewarding day.

BDML Connect Ltd (Part of the Capita Group) and The Rotary Club

This is Sarah's workplace and they have kindly paid registration fees for their employees to take part in the Rotary Club's 'Walk The Test Way' sponsored walk for 2 years now. In the last 2 years they have raised over £1700 for CFK.
There are a variety of walks for all ages and abilities through the beautiful Test Way. Sarah took along her son Liam and his friend and completed the 5 miles (although they did have a run in with some 'over friendly' cows!) See the image to the right to see Liam collecting his medal (he is the one in the middle).
If you would be interested in doing the walk for CFK in 2010, it is to be held on Sunday 10th October. Please see the Rotarys website for details or contact Sarah
