Welcome To A Groundbreaking Community Scheme
Welcome to the groundbreaking, new Community scheme at Burnley Football Club
The Burnley Football Club Programme for Education, Sport and Society (BFC PESS),
is run by an existing charity, the Futures Learning Trust in a model that is unique with the
Football League.
BFC PESSwas officially launched in September 2011 with a half time parade on the pitch
by local schoolchildren.
Player visits to a wide variety of community initiatives will form a major part of the new
The Futures Learning Trust scheme.
The programme, working in partnership with Burnley School Sport Partnership, will be working
with local schools to provide sport and educational activities both within school and
out-of-school hours.
The programme also provides a variety of activities in the community, in relation to health,
social inclusion and education, working alongside local charitable and community partners.
