Helping Everyone Play, Watch, Learn and Belong
we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to experience the power of football.
Yet for many people in our community, the cost of taking part can be a barrier. Whether it's attending a holiday camp, watching a match at Plough Lane, completing a coaching qualification or taking up walking football, too many opportunities remain out of reach.
That's why we created Club Together.
Club Together is a community fund that removes financial barriers, giving children, young people and adults the chance to play, watch, learn and belong.
With your support, we can ensure that nobody misses out simply because they can't afford to take part.
Donate today and help open our activities to everyone.
What is Club Together?
Club Together is AFC Wimbledon Foundation's community access fund.
It provides financial support for people who would otherwise be unable to take part in the opportunities we offer.
The fund can help members of our community to:
Play football or take part in multi-sport activities.
Attend AFC Wimbledon men's and women's matches at Plough Lane.
Access holiday camps and community programmes.
Gain coaching qualifications.
Train as a football referee or match official.
Volunteer and develop new skills.
Take part in our health, wellbeing and inclusion programmes.
Whatever someone's age or background, Club Together exists to make sure our activities are accessible to everyone.
Why it matters
Football is about far more than ninety minutes on a pitch.
It creates friendships, improves physical and mental wellbeing, builds confidence and gives people a genuine sense of belonging.
For many young people, it provides positive role models and a safe place to grow. For older adults, it helps reduce loneliness and keeps people active. For aspiring coaches and officials, it can be the beginning of a lifelong journey within the game.
Unfortunately, financial hardship means that many local people miss out on these opportunities every year.
At AFC Wimbledon Foundation, we don't believe money should decide who gets to be part of our club.
Club Together exists to change that.
What your donation could do
£10 could help fund an inclusive sports session for a child with additional needs.
£25 could help someone attend an AFC Wimbledon match, including travel where needed.
£50 could fund a place at a football or multi-sports holiday camp.
£100 could help someone gain a coaching or refereeing qualification.
£250 could provide life-changing opportunities for multiple people across our community.
Every gift, whatever its size, helps us create opportunities that inspire confidence, improve wellbeing and change lives.
