We’re proud to announce that Redcentric has joined The Big Goal as a Gold Member, strengthening our commitment to delivering meaningful social value in the communities we serve.
The Big Goal is a national initiative led by the Street Soccer Foundation that brings together UK businesses to tackle youth homelessness through the power of football. The campaign funds free Street Soccer Academy programmes for young people who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, or not currently in education, employment or training.
Through our Gold membership, we will sponsor a local 12-week programme delivered as close as possible to our business locations. The programme combines football coaching with personal development, employability workshops and pastoral support, helping young people build confidence, develop skills and take practical steps towards sustainable employment or education.
“We were really drawn to The Big Goal because it delivers practical, measurable support for young people who need it most. It’s not just about sponsorship, it’s about backing a structured programme that helps people build confidence, develop skills and take meaningful steps towards employment or education. Being able to support that locally made it an easy decision for us.”
– Katie Wood, Divisional Head of HR
Throughout the year, our colleagues will also have opportunities to get involved — from volunteering and mentoring, to taking part in The Big Goal National 5-a-side Football Tournament, the UK’s largest corporate five-a-side competition, with a strong social purpose at its heart.
We look forward to supporting our sponsored cohort and sharing updates on the progress and impact of this partnership over the coming months.
