Southern Tutors' Annual Charity Football Match was a huge success!

Five teams from around the county came together on a lovely Sunday in July to raise money for Epsom Hospital's charity, Epsom Medical Equipment Fund, and Riding for the Disabled.

We even had celebrity footballer AFC Wimbledon's Jack Midson who very kindly donated his time to referee for the day! Our own Member of Parliament for Epsom and Ewell, Chris Grayling, came to present the Grayling Shield to the winning team.

There were stalls selling cakes and raffles with wonderful prizes all helping to raise money for the chosen charities.


The five-a-side tournament, organised by Southern Tutors and run by helpers from Epsom Labour, Epsom Conservatives and Walton on the Hill Lib Dems,  took place at St Martin's Junior School in Epsom and raised several hundreds of pounds for local charities.

Two teams from Epsom Hospital faced teams of Labour and Conservative activists, as well as the eventual winners Walton Warriors who had come together especially to raise money for local causes. In the showcase political battle a 3-1 Labour lead was cancelled out by the Conservatives as they battled back to 3-3 with a last-minute goal.

In the final Walton Warriors gained a narrow victory over the Hospital B side to take home the Chris Grayling Shield, which was presented by local MP Chris Grayling and guest referee Jack Midson. The AFC Wimbledon striker was happy to be the referee for the day; taking to Twitter following the tournament to tell his followers how enjoyable the afternoon had been.


Next year we hope to raise even more money for our local charities, Epsom Medical Equipment Fund and Riding for the Disabled. We hope that you will be there to enjoy it with us.
