Falmouth United held its annual Christmas Raffle raising over £1,100 to purchase a life saving defibrillator for Penryn College and the local community. Falmouth United who play their home games at Penryn College all weather pitch are a sports partner of the college. Club Chairman, Chris Wood said "With the amount of people using the sports facilities at the college and the surrounding clubs, we thought it was important to be as prepared for a worse case scenario situation as possible. It's a great piece of equipment that we hope we never have to use".

Falmouth United's raffle was a huge success and Ryan Kitchener, who organised this, was instrumental in selling tickets and getting some fantastic prizes. Penryn College contributed towards the cabinet for the defibrillator in support of Falmouth United and the community.
