Accrington Stanley Community Trust will be taking centre stage at the Wham Stadium as part of a special Community Takeover Day at an upcoming Accrington Stanley home fixture.
The takeover on Good Friday 3rd April will celebrate the wide range of work delivered by the Trust across Hyndburn, supporting people of all ages through programmes focused on sport, education, health, and community development.
Throughout the day, supporters attending the match will have the opportunity to learn more about the Trust’s work and the impact it has across the local community. Representatives from a number of the Trust’s programmes will be present around the stadium, highlighting how the organisation engages with thousands of participants each year.
The Community Takeover will also showcase some of the participants and partner organisations involved in the Trust’s initiatives, offering a chance for fans to see first-hand the difference that community programmes can make.
Activities will be taking place both inside and around the stadium, creating a fantastic opportunity to bring the club and community even closer together on matchday.
Joanna Williams, Partnerships and Fundraising Manager at Accrington Stanley Community Trust, said:
“Community Takeover Day is a fantastic opportunity for us to showcase the impact that Accrington Stanley Community Trust has across the local area.
We work with thousands of people each year through our sport, health, education and community programmes, and this event allows supporters to see first-hand the difference these initiatives make.
We’re really looking forward to welcoming fans, partners and participants to the Wham Stadium and celebrating the power of football to bring people together and support our community.”
Supporters are encouraged to arrive early, get involved with the activities, and help celebrate the incredible work taking place through Accrington Stanley Community Trust.
Together with the club, the Trust continues to play a key role in using the power of football to inspire, support, and positively impact the local community.
