Ealing home care provider, Right at Home, sponsored the Indian Football Tournament which raised thousands for charity.

The Indian Football Tournament (IFT) started back in 2022 with the aims of promoting South Asian grassroots football whilst raising money and awareness for MIND charity.

This year on 29 June, IFT was able to raise £4,882 and across the previous two tournaments it was able to raise £6,300.

Sanjay Vadhera from Right at Home said: "This event was a fantastic blend of sport and social cause, aimed at raising awareness about mental health.

"All proceeds from the tournament were donated to Mind Charity. It was a day of fun, competition, and community spirit!" 

Also at the tournament was Heston Councillor Emma Sidhu, who said: "The football tournament was fantastic! It was great to be a part of it and support a good cause."
