Rebekah Keane and her team work wonders in schools across London, motivating and inspiring young children. When she offered me a rare remaining place to run the Big Half, I jumped at the chance. 

Football Beyond Borders works with young people who are disengaged with their education. We take a young person's passion for football and place it at the heart of their education.It costs £400 for a participant to complete a full year of the FBB Schools programme. This includes at least 70 hours of football-themed learning in the classroom and on the pitch using our FBB Curriculum, as well as 6 remarkable reward trips.In the current funding climate, schools are increasingly struggling to pay the full cost of the programme.
