Let’s go England! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🙌🏼

Good luck to all the incredible athletes representing England at the WKF World Championships in Cairo, Egypt!

Your hard work, discipline, and passion have brought you here now give it everything !
We’re all behind you!

Any donations, gratefully received, to help Ashton on his journey to the world stage, end November 🙏🏻

Help Ashton Represent England at the Senior World Championships

We are raising funds to support Ashton Patrick, an incredibly talented young karateka from a small town in Oxfordshire, who has just qualified to represent England at the Senior World Championships in Cairo.

Ashton’s karate journey began at the age of just three years old, training under the dedicated guidance of his dad. Through years of hard work, passion, and relentless dedication, he has risen to the top of the sport:

🥇 U21 European Champion
🥈 WKF Youth League Medallist
🏆 Multiple English & British Champion
🇬🇧 Proud member of Team England

This incredible achievement is the result of thousands of hours of training, early mornings, and sacrifices made by Ashton and his family. Now, he has earned the chance to compete against the world’s best on the biggest stage of his career — the Senior World Championships.

Why we need your support

Karate is a self-funded sport in England. Unlike many other national teams, athletes receive no central funding, meaning travel, accommodation, equipment, and competition fees must be paid for personally.

We’re asking for your help to get Ashton to Cairo and give him the best possible chance to achieve his dream of becoming a World Champion.

Every donation, no matter the size, will make a difference. It will go directly towards:

✈️ Travel & flights
🏨 Accommodation
🥋 Entry & competition fees
🧃 Meals and training expenses

Ashton wears the England badge with pride, and this is an incredible opportunity not just for him, but for our entire community to support one of our own as he represents his country on the world stage.

👉 Please consider donating or sharing this page to help make Ashton’s dream a reality.

Thank you so much for your support 🙏
