Story
Sporting Leeds were set up in the area of Harehills, Leeds, with the primary aim of using football to accommodate the youth in a positive way. Currently, on average we have approximately 50 to 60 attendees every week with 50% of those being girls.
The project wishes to ensure this success is maintained by being self sustainable with your support. We want to achieve our big aims with your support. We need a minibus to accommodate travel for children who can't access us. Most importantly we are in talks to secure a permanent home so that we can use this as a youth hub offering study classes as well as a variety of social clubs.
Our aims to achieve these dreams start here with your support. We hope you can join our journey.

3 years agoThank you all for your generous donations. We are progressing towards our target and will continue the push to ensure that our club has the finances in place to provide for the youth when they need us most. This lockdown had caused immeasurable strain on people's lives and the younger generation face a challenge to overcome the mental effects of covid-19 as they build for their futures. We need to be there for them!
