Staff at Bradford (Park Avenue) met earlier this month with Lukman Miah at BEAP Community Partnership, based at 31 Cornwall Road, BD8 7JN.
Lukman gave us a tour of some of the brilliant new facilities that are being used at the centre, which looks to address high levels of deprivation and disadvantage in the local area.
Commercial Director Calum Cullen had this to say on the visit;
“I recently had the great pleasure of meeting Lukman down at BEAP. The work he and his team are doing in the local and wider community is truly incredible, and I learned an awful lot.
“We are looking at ways for the Club to engage more with the partnership, and I’m looking forward to working with Lukman in the future.
“It was also my pleasure to donate some BPA gear, with footballs & hats for the youngsters, and BPA pens for the staff.”

We are delighted to confirm that the Club has embarked on a new partnership with the recently opened Spirits & Sports bar, on 11-13 Little Horton Lane, BD5 0AB in Bradford’s City Centre.
The new deal will see some (Park Avenue) memorabilia displayed at the flashy new ‘mancave’ style bar, as well as tickets behind the bar, available for anyone interested in attending the Horsfall.
We also had a quick tour on our first visit, which you can watch on our YouTube channel below.
