What is Your Next Step?

Run by the Football Club charities around the country, the programme uses the affinity, familiarity and connection that people have with their local Club as a way to break down barriers.  Football Club are key trusted organisations which are based in the heart of their communities, which enable them to reach out to all sections of their local community.

As part of the programme the Club’s charity provides an experienced mentor who being based at the Club is both relatable and relevant to the participant.   The mentor will work with the individual to provide action planning, signposting to other activities such as employability support, health and well being activities, community based initiatives. The programme is designed to be culturally aware and addresses challenges which are specific to the individual.
