We are currently building at Blaise Park on Mitchell Way, and have presented Milton United Football Club with a donation as part of our Community Fund initiative.
The fund, which launched in 2023, aims to help local organisations with specific donations that give them the tools they need to continue to thrive, and local groups and causes were invited to apply for their share of a £10,000 pot.
Milton United FC is based in Oxfordshire and currently has over 100 players including the Milton Mini Kickers, which includes players as young as four years old.
After seeing success last season, there has been an increase in adults, children and volunteers wanting to join the club.
Our donation will help the club purchase new equipment and maintain the fields so they can continue to provide a well-run football club for the community for years to come.
Gareth Woodward, Chairperson, of Milton United Football Club, said:
“For Milton United FC to receive this donation through the Redrow Community Fund initiative is amazing. As Blaise Park continues to grow around us, so does the interest in our Club. The development of youth football is highest on our agenda. This donation has already allowed us to purchase several new items, which have already been put to great use. We have even been able to purchase matchday shelters so that both the home and away players don’t have to stand out in the rain. Without support such as this, we’d struggle to achieve our goals and for that, we are extremely grateful to Redrow.”
Sian Smith, Sales Director at Redrow South West, said:
“We’re committed to building thriving communities within the local area and we are proud to support local clubs and charities so they can continue to do the wonderful work they do. Milton United FC are a fantastic group, scoring goals on the field, while nurturing young talent, and providing a sociable space for the players to stay active and make friends. We’re delighted to donate funds to help the team and be part of their journey this year!”
Blaise Park will shortly offer three, four- and five-bedroom homes available from £412,000. With a primary school on its doorstep and a brand-new secondary school nearby, Blaise Park couldn’t be more convenient for families, and is perfect for couples looking to find their forever home.
Open green spaces throughout the development will encourage time spent outdoors, and the nearby market town of Abingdon offers great shopping opportunities, and the buzz of Oxford city centre is just 22 minutes away.
