Stevenage FC Foundation Impact Report 2023/24

Stevenage FC Foundation is the official independent charity of Stevenage Football Club, delivering over 30 community programmes across Hertfordshire covering sport, health, education and community engagement. Their 2023/24 impact report documents £10.69 million in social value, 185+ weekly sessions, and a genuinely lifelong community offer from age 2 to 96 — with programmes ranging from dementia cafés and cancer recovery to degree-level education delivered from The Lamex Stadium. Key figures from the report: Programmes serve participants from age 2 through to age 96 — genuinely lifelong engagement offer; sessions delivered across Stevenage, North Hertfordshire, East Hertfordshire and Welwyn Hatfield. Daryl Smith cited as 13-year Foundation employee who has 'impacted thousands of people'; participant Duncan lost weight and dropped blood sugar levels to safer levels through Get Set to Go; Phil (dementia) broke down barriers and stigma, moving from arms-crossed non-participation to social engagement over programme duration.
