Football For Communities

Football For Communities

Clubs & Leagues working to support their local communities in these challenging times

Together, We Are Football.

Football at its very heart is built on a foundation of support. Support for our teams, support for our clubs and our communities.

As a nation we're facing a period of uncertainty that will present challenges to us all but over recent weeks we've seen many examples of clubs and leagues in our region offering support to their local communities during the current health crisis. We’ve put together a few of the things you're doing to stay in touch with members or to help in your local communities when safe and possible to do so.

If your club or league has plans in place to support or stay connected to your communities over the coming weeks, please tell us about it below and we'll add you to this article.

Tell us what you're doing
