Raising Awareness for Foster Care at The Longevity Games Swindon - 9 February 2025

The Longevity Games is supporting our fostering charity in raising awareness of the vital work we do and the need for more foster carers in our community.

What is The Longevity Games?
The Longevity Games is an exciting fitness event dedicated to promoting health, well-being, and longevity. It features endurance, strength, and explosive exercise activities, all aimed at enhancing quality of life.

Our Involvement

Thanks to the generous support of event organiser Tim Howe, our charity has been given the fantastic opportunity to spread awareness by including our leaflets in all competitors’ goody bags. With 143 participants at this indoor event at Delta Tennis Centre, Swindon, that means 143 opportunities to reach people who may be interested in making a difference in a child’s life.

Additionally, members of our fostering community will be actively taking part. Our very own CFC foster carer, Charmaine, will be competing at the event. Our Senior Supervising Social Worker Jenny will also be volunteering while her husband takes part alongside Charmaine.

Looking Ahead
This is just the beginning! The Longevity Games will return in May, July, and September, moving back to an outdoor setting with greater capacity. This will allow us to have a dedicated stand helping us reach even more people who may be interested in fostering.

We are incredibly grateful for this opportunity to connect with the community and continue spreading awareness about the importance of fostering. If you’ll be at the event, come say hello!
