Frickley Athletic Community Foundation

Frickley Athletic Community Foundation (FACF) was established 1st May 2018 with the aim of bringing the SESKU community more together with varies activities. We work in many local schools and our school work continues to grow as we offer many different sports to suit each schools need and requirements. Every school holiday (expect Christmas) we run a sports camp for 5 to 12 year olds to attend these have been hugely successful with over 500 kids in total attending the camps to date. Running until March 2022, we will be offering free school meals through school holidays for those that attend the sports camps and are eligable We run the Girls only football, the Wildcats programme supported by the Football Association, this offering local girls aged 5 to 11 the chance to be coached in football in a supportive and fun environment. Movement to music is run in local care homes and independent living schemes, this offering exercise to those with less mobility but still giving them the opportunity to exercise which is vital at any age. We have supported Frickley Athletic Football Club in becoming a Dementia supportive club, we supported the staff and directors through the course so those suffering can still attend matches and will be supported on their visit. We are also part of the PEAT project to support people into employment in our local area. We aim to give them the tools and mindset needed to get on the job ladder through sporting activities
