As a result of a fire at Heyford Playing Fields on Friday Evening (believed to be started deliberately), we are devastated to report the Heyford CC Storage Unit took the majority of the damage, and as a result we have lost all of our Grounds Equipment (including our recently purchased Roller, Mowers, and all Ancillary Equipment), amounting to thousands upon thousands of pounds damage. Longer term, we’ll be working with our friends at HSC to resolve this, and short term, we’ll be doing our very best to fulfil our remaining home fixtures as best we can.
It’s still early days, it’s taking a while to sink in, and we are probably yet to understand the full extent of both the damage and implications.
We’ve already been blown away by offers of support, and potential fundraising. As the full situation emerges, we’ll communicate more.
Heyford CC is a great community club, and I have no doubt that this adversity will only galvanise us further.
Thanks to everyone for their support so far, and for enquiries about how to support us or donate funds to help us rebuild stronger. More information to follow.
