We are delighted to have won the Inclusion Project Award at the Asian Football Awards, held at Wembley Stadium this week. The award reflects our ‘Faith and Football’ programme and wider South Asian inclusion work on a night where inspirational South Asian individuals including players, community leaders and rising stars and their vital contributions at every level of the game were showcased. The evening highlighted the growing impact of South Asians in football and served as a powerful reminder of the talent emerging from these communities. Congratulations to all of the winners. https://lnkd.in/eAQ9cdBf

Our charity partnership with The FA has now raised an incredible £1 million! Over the last three years, the £1 million raised through the partnership has gone towards crucial Alzheimer's Society support services and research that will help transform the future of dementia diagnosis, changing the game for fans and players in years to come. This season will continue to build on the success of the partnership’s ongoing work. FA staff will once again be taking on fundraising challenges for the charity, whilst exciting new plans are in development to use football as a means of providing local support and encouraging fans to engage with vital dementia research. Thanks a million. 💙
