Sports Fun 4 All uses the power of sport to improve the lives of children and young people in South London. We harness the power of sports to drive social change and combat violence, discrimination, and disadvantage for children and young people. Our unique approach uses sports as a catalyst for transformation.
We deliver the most free weekly football sessions in London. We provide 17 weekly sessions at 13 venues in Bellingham, Brockley, Burgess Park, Catford, Crystal Palace, Downham, Deptford, Eltham, Elephant & Castle, Hither Green, Kennington, Kidbrooke and Lewisham Way, covering Bromley, Greenwich, Lambeth, Lewisham, and Southwark Boroughs.
We aim to inspire children and young people to achieve their potential and improve their wellbeing, fostering a sense of community and belonging. Together, we build stronger, safer, and more inclusive communities. We use our foundations in the community to regularly engage children and young people of all backgrounds and abilities in football, sport, and personal development – providing a trusted, positive influence in some of the most deprived areas across the UK.
