HTAFC Community Foundation to join the Twinning Project
We are excited to announce a partnership with the Twinning Project and Wealstun Prison in Thorp Arch near Wetherby. The aim is to engage prisoners to improve their mental and physical health, wellbeing and obtain a qualification which will help improve their life chances and gain employment on release. The Twinning Project is a partnership between Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) and professional football clubs with the objective of twinning every prison in England and Wales with a local professional football club. Iain Service – Community Manager explains, ‘To be involved in the Twinning Project is really exciting. This allows us to showcase HTAFC within the prison, inspire people to better themselves and create real opportunities once released from prison. This work also directly links with our Community Objectives’. Be sure to follow the progress of the Twinning project over the next few months. We will be posting regular updates on our social media and also through website and matchday programme pages.
