Football Journeys

Football Journeys is a charity that brings young people from different communities together to share new experiences, find common ground and overcome stereotypes through the language of film and the love of football. Since 2012 we have tackled mistrust and stereotypes by taking participants to different areas to build positive links with their peers. We’re working to break down barriers between young people based on evidence that meaningful interaction makes you more likely to view different groups positively, but also put more faith in society as a whole. By playing football together in each other’s ‘home’ ground, and sharing our stories, new places become more accessible and shared commonalities are celebrated.
