Let’s Talk Football​

Football becomes the gateway to emotional literacy and conflict resolution.

Aim & Who
Supporting young people and families affected by generational trauma linked to crime and violence.

Why it’s needed
Over 1 in 4 young people in the UK have been exposed to serious violence. Our participants tell us they feel angry, unheard and unsupported, with few safe spaces to process what they’ve lived through.

Impact
Weekly football sessions combined with guided group conversations create space for healing, reflection and trust-building. Football becomes the gateway to emotional literacy and conflict resolution. Participants report improved relationships, reduced aggression and a stronger sense of control over their future. Let’s Talk Football turns cycles of harm into pathways of hope.
