Vincentian Family Using Street Football to Serve Youth – Glasgow

Street football is a medium that seeks to engage excluded young people in the heart of their own community, encouraging them to develop community skills and citizenship.

Why Street Football ?

The East End of Glasgow is recognised as one of the most deprived areas in the U.K suffering from numerous disadvantages with two thirds of children living below the official poverty line. There are numerous issues that young people growing up in the East End have to face. 

It is against this background that the initiative of Street Football is being offered
