Our Goal
Our community programme, Pilkington FC in the Community, uses the power of football to inspire the people of St Helens.
Our Target
To raise aspirations, encourage confidence and build skills to help people reach their full potential.
By enabling football, in a safe environment, we are committed to creating opportunities that will improve the physical and mental wellbeing of those throughout the community – from children and young people, to senior citizens.
Our Game Plan
We seek to provide enjoyment for as many people as possible and to break down barriers that may prevent people getting involved. We believe football is for all, regardless of their age, ability or background.
Our Training
From after-school clubs and holiday soccer schools, to walking football and our disability team, there is a football session for everyone.
We deliver a range of programmes, each tailored to give participants the chance to learn new skills, make new friends and engage in healthy activity, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity or ability.
Our programme is led by qualified and experienced coaches, delivering exciting and innovative sessions that ensure everyone has a brilliant and enjoyable time.
Our Mission
To play a lead role in Pilkington FC’s success off the field by taking the club closer to the heart of the community.
Our Vision
To be an outstanding provider of sport, education and health and wellbeing programmes within St Helens for the people of St Helens that enhance lives, break down barriers and make a difference.
