Football For Change was set up by stars by Trent Alexander-Arnold, Conor Coady and Jamie Carragher in 2021 to make an impact for young people living in the most deprived communities in the UK.

The likes of Jude Bellingham, Steven Gerrard, Gary Neville, Gary Lineker and Beth Mead are all supporters of the charity – as well as numerous business leaders.

The funding has helped with key projects in education, employment and sport for those who have grown up in poverty or faced particular hardship growing up.
