CSR & Social Impact

CREATE IMPACT THROUGH GIRLS’ FOOTBALL

Partner with Prestbury to remove barriers, create opportunity and strengthen the environment around young female players.

Purpose With Outcomes

SOCIAL VALUE PEOPLE CAN UNDERSTAND

A CSR partnership with Prestbury should do more than create brand visibility. It should fund a clearly defined outcome — helping a player stay in football, creating coaching opportunities for girls, improving wellbeing provision or making national competition more accessible.

We can agree the programme, contribution, recognition and reporting approach with each partner so the relationship fits both the Academy’s needs and your organisation’s social-impact objectives.
