Off the Bench is a fantastic SPFL Trust initiative for young people aged 17-24.
Thanks to funding from the Scottish Government’s CashBack scheme, our charity is running a 12-week programme for young adults who are looking for a fresh start to build a better path going forward.
Off the Bench is held within Falkirk Stadium, the home of Falkirk FC. One day a week young people will attend courses at the Stadium, these will include class time and physical activity.
There will be a strong focus on delivering certificate-based courses which will include the Scottish FA Level 1.1 Coaching badge, Sports Leader Award, Approach Saltire Award and SQA Employability qualifications (SCQF Level 4).
Falkirk Foundation are one of only five football grounds offering this programme across Scotland.
Programme starts Tuesday the 24th August for more information contact davem@falkirkfoundation.org or call 01324 624121.
