Story
From the school who brought you the fantastic Strictly Heads 2021, More House School are excited to present their next project - Strictly Headers in aid of the charity Play it Forward.
If you missed out on the chance to dance last year, perhaps a game of football with other female Heads and senior leaders will be more your game. Following on from the success of the Lionesses last summer, what better way to celebrate the growth in womens football, than to bring schools together in a fundraising programme with a difference.
We have chosen to support Play it Forward is a charity that provides opportunities through education and health activities for young people in Southern Zambia. They use a sport for development approach as a means to achieving sustainable social change. Their support, on and off the pitch, ensures that young people emerge from their programmes with new skills to succeed in school, the workforce and life.
Play it Forward needs your support to make football accessible, safe and fun for girls in Zambia. The charity is trying to expand its programmes into hard to reach rural communities in Zambia but are limited by basic facilities and equipment. They have plans to build a community hub with changing rooms, toilets, a kitchen and a learning space in Livingstone, Southern Zambia. This will enable them to reach thousands more girls on our football, health, nutrition and education programmes.
