How your investment is spent

Overall, for every £1 invested into our nationally acclaimed Academy programme, the Street Soccer Foundation is currently returning £17 of social value which is delivered through increased confidence, interaction with positive role models, and a decline in anti-social behaviour, substance abuse and criminal activity – and instead, securing employment, and gaining work-related skills for those we support in communities nationwide.
