The community came together for charity at the Hangout Luton Four Seasons Badminton Tournament

The competition was organized by Hangout Luton, a not-for-profit organization to empower the local community. Hangout Luton runs a range of programs aimed at promoting personal development, wellbeing and community engagement. Services include youth drop-in sessions, business start-up support, education services and community resilience projects designed to enrich the lives of Luton residents. Hangout Luton’s mission is to create an inclusive space where every resident can thrive with support and opportunities.

After 10 hours of intense matches, the results are:

• 1st stage: Tanvir and Delwar

• 2nd place: Abdullah and Tanveer

• 3rd level: Ruhel and Abu

• 1st rank: Ali and Saqib

• 2nd level: Taj and Mahbub

• 3rd place: Shaheed and Robin.

However, the race was not just a race. I also help out with The Curry Kitchen Luton, a local charity that prepares fresh meals for over 150 homeless and vulnerable people every week. With the support of sponsors, participants and attendees, over 500 meals have been funded so far, and donations continue to pour in.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to the many sponsors and supporters who contributed to making the tournament a resounding success.

The success of the Fall Cup would not have been possible without the invaluable contributions of all sponsors, participants and volunteers. Special thanks are given to the sponsors for their financial support and guidance during the planning and execution of the event. The hard work of the volunteers who gave so generously of their time and energy was crucial to the success of the competition.

“This tournament is not just about badminton, but about bringing our community together for a good cause,” said Hanif Hasnat, project leader. “The support we have received has been truly heartwarming, and we are grateful to everyone who has contributed to help The Curry Kitchen Luton continue their amazing work supporting those in need.”

The Hangout Luton Four Seasons Badminton Tournament proved to be a resounding success both competitively and for charity. Hangout Luton are looking forward to the next event in the series and hope to build on the success of the Autumn Cup.
