This 5 a side tournament will be hosted on Friday 7th October 2022, 12pm - 4pm at Football World, Pontefract Lane, LS9 0RA and we would love for your organisation to enter a staff and/or volunteer team.
The entry fee for all teams is £60, with proceeds going to Peters Fund. 'Peters Fund was set up last year in memory of our colleague and friend Peter Richards. The fund has helped countless people with financial support from as little as £5 for a door chain to full house deep cleans to stop eviction processes. The benefits to the people we support has been incredible, it makes them feel cared for, valued and part of society again.' - Khalid Din Area Pathway Manager Engage Leeds
Featuring teams from Leeds' charity and public sector, the tournament will be held in memory of our late colleague Peter Richards, who sadly passed away in 2020. Peter worked for housing and homelessness charities for over 30 years and dedicated his working life to making a positive difference in peoples lives. For the last 3 years of his life, Peter was the service manager at Engage Leeds helping people who have complex needs and are homeless or are at risk of becoming homeless. Outside of his work, Peter was a passionate football fan, supporting Arsenal as well his local non-league team, Bradford Park Avenue.
