Cambridge United apprentices Dempsy and Lennon recently visited the children’s ward at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, bringing plenty of smiles, games and laughter to young patients.
The visit was organised in collaboration with the Cambridge United Foundation, who continue to build strong community links and provide invaluable opportunities for the club.
Both apprentices enjoyed spending time with the children, playing games and chatting with patients, while also gaining a valuable insight into the wider role the football club plays off the pitch.
Harsh Joshi, Head of Education at the club, said: “It was a great experience for Dempsy and Lennon speaking to the children on the ward and helping to lift spirits. For me, it’s also important for them to see this side of what the football club does in the wider community. We try take learning beyond the classrooms as I feel it helps give all our scholars a well-rounded experience during their scholarship.”
