stevenagefcfoundation.comAbout Stevenage Football Club Foundation Ltd
Stevenage Football Club Foundation Ltd is the official charitable arm of Stevenage Football Club, established in 2010 and registered as a charity the following year. Its mission is to foster active, healthy, and positive lives by harnessing the power of sport to unlock people's potential. The Foundation operates with a strong emphasis on inclusivity, partnership, wellbeing, and community development, taking a holistic, lifelong approach grounded in the needs of Hertfordshire. It is not a grant-making body; instead, it delivers evidence-based programmes directly through its own initiatives or in partnership with local councils and national bodies, maintaining operational independence from the football club while benefiting from its ties.
What Stevenage Football Club Foundation Ltd funds
The Foundation's work centres on sport, youth, and older people, addressing physical and mental health, employability, life skills, and educational equity. Its programmes include football coaching, walking football, activities for children and seniors, a community kitchen, and youth inclusion initiatives such as the Kicks programme. The Foundation also runs Extra Time Hubs for seniors, Strength and Balance classes, and the Premier League Primary Stars scheme. All activities are delivered within Stevenage, Hertfordshire, and adjacent areas, with a focus on outcomes such as increased activity levels, improved mental health, reduced loneliness, and closing educational gaps. The Foundation does not fund external organisations but invests its resources in its own co-designed, evidence-based programmes.
Who can apply
The Foundation does not accept unsolicited applications for funding. It delivers its programmes directly to the community, targeting children, young people, older adults, disabled individuals, and ethnic minorities in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, and surrounding areas. Organisations that wish to partner with the Foundation typically do so through commissioned partnerships with local councils or national bodies such as the EFL Trust and Premier League funds. There are no income or size requirements for these partnerships, as the Foundation's resources are dedicated to its own internal delivery.
What Stevenage Football Club Foundation Ltd doesn't fund
The Foundation does not fund external organisations, one-off interventions, or activities outside Hertfordshire and adjacent areas. It does not accept unsolicited grant applications or provide grants to individuals. All resources are directed towards its own programmes or commissioned partnerships.
How they like to fund
