EFL in the Community is a football charity which is the charitable arm of the English Football League (EFL).

We use the power of the Club badge to reach into our communities and deliver a wide range of initiatives, focusing on improving health and wellbeing; raising aspirations and realising potential and building stronger, more cohesive communities.

Our network engages with over 931,00 participants and generates income and funding of over £100m to invest into their community activities every year.

EFL in the Community is a strategic system partner of Sport England and is part of the movement to help people across EFL communities to move more and enjoy the benefits of an active lifestyle.

EFL in the Community receives long-term National Lottery funding from Sport England and has committed to influence positive change and drive improvements across our network and beyond.  This is part of Sport England’s approach to long-term partnerships with organisations aligned to the ‘Uniting the Movement’ strategy.
