South Tyneside College students are making a difference in the local community by hosting a Charity Football Match to raise money for a cause close to their hearts – The Charlie & Carter Foundation.
Organised as part of a Social Action Project, the event has been led by our Uniformed Services and Policing (UPS) students, with additional support from learners across the college. From creating posters to planning logistics and building community links, the students have been working hard behind the scenes for months to bring this project to life.
Join us for a fantastic day of football, fundraising, and family fun on Saturday 26th April at Hedworthfield Community Association in Jarrow.
There’s no need to pre-book – just turn up, show your support, and enjoy:
