Looking back over 2025

What a busy year 2025 turned out to be for Cambridge Charity Fund Raisers.

Thanks to all the companies and members of the public who donated and supported all our events.

We made more donations in 2025 than ever but we only manage to do this with the support of so many people.

Listed below are just a few of the charities and organisations we worked with in 2025.

The annual Cambridge United Foundation V Cambridge Charity Fund Raisers football match was again a huge success thanks to all the forma Cambridge United players for supporting the event.

The opening of The BRIGHT HORIZON cafe in partnership with the Cambridge United Foundation at the Cledara Abbey Stadium in February was a standout moment that has helped a number of people since the launch.

Special thanks to Aaron Paul at ITV sport for covering the launch along with Keith Heppel of The Cambridge Independent News Paper, former players Luke Chadwick, John Taylor, attended and spoke so honestly about their own personal journeys through life.

The walk in café is available to all on the second Wednesday of the month between 2pm -4pm.
