Seymours Community Cup: Everything You Need to Know (Updated)
18 April, 2024
We're thrilled to see the excitement building up for the upcoming Seymours Community Cup. This special event is not just about a bit of competition and community spirit, it’s also another way we're combining our love for both Woking Football Club and Woking & Sam Beare Hospice.
It was an amazing day filled with sports and fun but also contributing to an invaluable community asset. The hospice provides specialist palliative care and support for families in our community, and every bit of support makes a significant difference.
Congratulations to Natta Building Company for winning the Community Cup 🏆 and
St George’s Heating & Plumbing for winning the Community Shield 🛡️
As you're probably aware seeing the Seymours Community stand at Woking FC we're big supporters of this local team.
