See below some of the work we have done in the past, under our previous name The Horsfall Community Trust.
Eat Healthy, Stay Healthy | Community 🟢⚪️
Our National League Trust funded programme in partnership with our official club Charity The Horsfall Community Trust has been a huge success. Educating children on the importance of a healthy and balanced diet and the link between that and physical performance and general well-being.
Ronnie the Ram paid the children a visit to celebrate the project’s success. It’s great to see BPA in the community and engaging with the next generation of potential Avenue fans.
