Bradford (Park Avenue) Sports Foundation recently enjoyed an inspiring visit to Sheffield United Community Foundation, where staff members Lewis and Mat had the opportunity to see first-hand the incredible community work being delivered across the city.
The day was led by Brad Fox, whose passion for making a difference is truly infectious. From exploring the innovative Post 16 E-sports education programme to experiencing the welcoming Family Hub facilities, the visit highlighted the breadth and quality of Sheffield United’s community engagement.
Lewis and Mat were also introduced to the powerful work being done in dementia engagement and disability inclusion programmes, showcasing how football clubs can extend their reach far beyond the pitch to support health, wellbeing, and social connection.
The visit not only provided valuable insight into Sheffield United’s projects but also opened the door for exciting conversations about potential collaboration in the future.
At Bradford (Park Avenue) Sports Foundation, we are equally committed to using sport as a tool to create safer, healthier, and more connected communities here in Bradford. Support from partners and donors helps us continue to deliver projects that change lives.
💚 A huge thank you to Brad Fox and the Sheffield United team for their warm welcome and for sharing their inspiring work.
