We're still collecting donations

On the 7th August 2020 we'd raised £7,102 with 67 supporters in 28 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.

 New stretch target

Our stretch target will further enable us to combat the effects of the coronavirus, coming out even stronger the other side!


As a Community club at the heart of the local area, we are aware of the devastating impact that COVID-19 is having on all aspects of life.

We're raising £5000 (or more!) to help Felixstowe & Walton United FC plug the shortfall caused by the COVID -19 outbreak and subsequent lockdown.

Following the premature end to the 2019/20 season due to the cornonavirus pandemic and the subsequent forced closure of the clubhouse, The Seasiders have lost nearly all of its revenue streams- matchday income, club shop purchases, bar takings, clubhouse hire, as well as a multitude of planned events including Junior Presentation Day, Senior Presentation, Sportsman's Dinner, Gin Festival, Tournaments, the hosting of County Cup Finals, not to mention Euro 2020 and the planned big screen on the pitch. The Clubs biggest fundraiser- Felixstowe Firework Spectacular- is almost certain to be cancelled too.

Although we have worked hard to stabilise the club during current pandemic, with the loss of sponsorship, bills to pay, ground maintenance to cover, and no clarification on when the next season will commence, due to social distancing rules, it is unclear when we will be able to generate vital income to keep the club progressing forward.

Any funds donated will be spread across the whole club, including the Junior Section, general club bills and also the Reserve and First Team, because a thriving, successful club on the pitch will further help increase revenues off the pitch.

But we don't just want to approach you with a begging bowl in hand. That's why there are a number of 'rewards' for any donations we receive.
