In 2003, Liverpool Football in the Community trust were delighted to receive a grant of £14,052 towards a football coaching programme for children in Toxeth. The aim of the project was to enhance the education and well being of children and help integrate the many ethnic groupings in the area. Coaching was provided irrespective of creed, ethnic origin, gender and ability with an emphasis on exercise, fun and enjoyment whilst promoting key messages of anti racism and anti bigotry language, values and behaviour.
In addition, a further £24,716 will shortly be awarded to a charity of Liverpool FC’s choice as a result of the 2005 and 2006 games at Anfield.
