Upper Lighthorne FC

APPEAL FOR HELP

One of our coaches lost his ring at our field in Lighthorne Heath. We’re putting a call out to anyone who uses this field (Families, Dog Walkers, Joggers, etc) and anyone who plays football to keep an eye out and reach out to us if they find it

🧗‍♀️ Upper Lighthorne FC Fundraiser Alert! 🧗‍♀️

One of our coaches, James Yates, is taking on an incredible challenge to raise money for CHWA — a charity doing brilliant work supporting women and children who have been subjected to domestic abuse.

James is putting his bravery to the test by absailing down coventry cathedral and we’d love the whole Upper Lighthorne FC family to get behind him. If you can spare a donation, big or small, it will make a real difference.
