Foundation of Light introduces transformational place-based football academy at Consett AFC
The pioneering academy, based at the football club’s Belle View Stadium, aims to remove long-standing barriers to education and high-performance coaching.
On Thursday 30 November we celebrated some of the inspiring success stories of our participants during our Gala Awards Dinner.
With some of the North East's biggest names in attendance to show their support for the Foundation's work, we also witnessed performances from The Sunderland Story and chart-topping music legend - Jason Donovan.
