#BECONNECTED WITH PRIMARY STARS

The Foundation of Light facilitated a Premier League Primary Stars online networking workshop yesterday (30th April), which enabled the collaboration of football clubs from around the country to discuss how they are supporting their local communities through the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact that their support is having. The workshop provided the opportunity to share best practice and to #BeConnected which is so important at this difficult time.

To be chosen as one of 10 from 110 is amazing. I was excited to lead the discussion and discuss best practice on how we are currently dealing with the pandemic and helping our community, but also how Premier League Primary Stars is assisting with home schooling and that we are still here to help.
