Foundation project wins EFL award.

The Robins Foundation's ADD Mentor Programme has been nominated for the EFL Community Project of the Season award at the 2024 EFL Awards, picking up the divisional award for the Sky Bet Championship.

The EFL Community Awards 2024 celebrate the very best in Club community work and recognising commitment, innovation and impact from Clubs and players during the 2023/24 season. 

Winners will be presented with their awards at a ceremony taking place in the House of Commons later today. 

The Community Project of the Season award represents the most innovative and impactful projects that Clubs deliver in their local communities. In the Championship, this award goes to City's ADD Mentor programme, which supports young people identified by the police as being at risk of going to prison. While the scheme is small in scale, it delivers major impact in the area, helping to transform the lives of its participants and acting as a catalyst for positive change. 

In League, One Port Vale is recognised for the Club’s Community Cupboard and Lounge initiative, which has supported over 6,000 people in the last 12 months with cost-of-living challenges. Morecambe is this year’s League Two winner for its Veteran’s project which started out as a regular coffee morning for ex-servicemen and women and has developed considerably into a lifeline for veterans aged 19 – 90.
