Community Pay What You Want Day
Weston-super-Mare AFC v Chesham United
Saturday September 20th 2025
Entry prices will be reduced from normal to only a £2.00 minimum donation for non-season ticket holders, making it a bargain to enter the Optima Stadium.
This initiative is a way for us at the club to thank our fans for their loyalty, hopefully bring in new faces to the Optima Stadium for more than just a one-off occasion, and raise as much money as possible for Seagulls in the Community and Weston Hospicecare.
Enjoy live music from Myles and Maddox in the Somerset Suite Function Room from 1:30pm–2:30pm, while Weston Hospicecare host charity stalls in the Sports Lounge.
Seagulls in the Community is the official club charity of Weston-super-Mare AFC. They deliver a wide range of projects to support local people, including the Dugout youth club, Sport in Mind sessions, school holiday football programmes, and the brand-new Friendship Friday group. Through sport and community activities, Seagulls in the Community brings people together, promotes wellbeing, and creates opportunities for all.
Andy Kynaston, Community Manager at Seagulls in the Community, said:
“Seagulls in the Community has had a busy year working with Weston Ability panabilty football team, running our free weekly youth club The Dugout, working with Sport in mind running our weekly football wellbeing session for adults who love a kickabout and a chat.
“We have funded ten places a day for children who previously may not have been able to attend the club’s football fun days via the HAF fund. Our weekly cycling group in conjunction with North Somerset healthy lifestyles is growing in numbers.
“We have worked very closely with our friends at Weston Hospicecare – The work they do in caring for people in our community is fantastic. We cannot thank you enough for the care and love you provide.”
Kirsty Simmons, Partnership Manager at Weston Hospicecare, said:
“Our partnership with Weston-super-Mare AFC is a shining example of how the local community can come together to support one another. Over the past few years, the Weston-super-Mare AFC have been incredible supporters of Weston Hospicecare, getting involved in everything from our Blue for You Week and Community Pay What You want Days to our children’s bereavement team.
“Their ongoing commitment means so much to us, and it’s partnerships like this that help ensure we can continue providing compassionate care to local people who need us.
“We’re truly grateful for everything the Seagulls do, and we look forward to this partnership continuing for many years to come.”
