Story

"The Foundation of Light was founded with the aim of inspiring people to change their lives for the better through the power of education and sport".

Sir Bob Murray CBE, Chair of Trustees

SAFC Foundation of Light:

OUR VISION

A Community where everyone has choice and the opportunity to improve their lives.

OUR MISSION

To Involve, Educate and Inspire through the power of football.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Every year, Foundation of Light takes a team of cyclists on an epic ride where friendships are forged, goals accomplished and great memories are made through the Foundation’s Cycle Challenges.

Previous Cycle Challenges have seen our team ride from Dublin to Sunderland; across Italy from Pisa to Venice; commemorating the 70th anniversary of World War Two by cycling 320 miles from Brussels to Paris; and travelling coast to coast in the Atlantic to Mediterranean challenge.

This year the ride sees the team cycling through Italy over 4 days making their way from Pisa to Rome.

The fully supported ride is demanding enough for the keen cyclist but enjoyable for amateurs too who are looking for an interesting challenge, offering a truly great experience all the while raising a serious amount of money for a fantastic cause.
