Story

We are Sporting Memories. For 10 years we have been using the power of remembering and talking about sport along with physical exercise to tackle dementia, depression and loneliness. We are dedicated to bringing together older adults.

The older adults who come to our online or community-based Clubs may be isolated, or living with depression, dementia or other long-term conditions. They are fans, former players, family members. Everyone has one thing in common: a love of sport.

We provide social and physical activities, too. At Sporting Memories Clubs, everyone finds fun, friendship and increased well-being.

We also run campaigns and projects and work in partnership with organisations. From sporting bodies such as the PFA and professional clubs to local community organisations and care providers. And of course without our dedicated volunteer teams, we could not do the work we do.
