Tottenham Hotspur and its official charity, Spurs in the Community, have launched Together Tottenham, a single, connected pathway designed to improve life chances for young people in Tottenham and the surrounding areas.
For the first time, the Club and Spurs in the Community's off-field work sit under one shared purpose. The mission is to create 150,000 meaningful opportunities for young people to learn, earn or lead by 2030, from their first experience of Spurs at primary school through education, training and into a career.
Together Tottenham was shaped by the Club's largest-ever impact survey, completed by more than 3,300 supporters over the summer. Fans named opportunities for young people, local jobs and growth, and community safety as their top priorities for the Club beyond football.
It builds on work already under way. More than 13,000 people take part in Spurs in the Community activities every year, generating £24 million in social value for the local area. Since 2023, employment fairs at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium have drawn more than 3,500 jobseekers and delivered over 1,500 positive outcomes.
The need is clear. Child poverty in Haringey stands at 38 per cent after housing costs, and 40 per cent in neighbouring Enfield, against 21 per cent nationally. North Tottenham is among the 10 per cent most deprived neighbourhoods in England.
The pathway has seven stages spanning ages five to 25 and beyond. The first major new initiative is Call Up, a jobs-first route into work led by Spurs in the Community with Maikai, connecting young people across North London with jobs, apprenticeships, work experience, mentoring and training. A new university campus at the stadium will open in phases from 2028, with bursaries and scholarships reserved for young people from Haringey and Enfield.
Marc Leckie, Chief Executive Officer of Spurs in the Community, said: "Young people tell us that talent is everywhere you look in Tottenham, but opportunity is not. Together Tottenham is designed to change that by creating a clear and supported journey from early engagement and education into employment and leadership."
Levi Ngimbi, 24, took part in a Spurs in the Community entrepreneurship programme last year and has since grown his creative agency, Preacher. He said: "Spurs in the Community gave me a platform I couldn't have built alone." He added: "That's what this organisation does: it doesn't just open the first door, but the ones that follow."
For the sport for good sector, Together Tottenham shows how a club and its charity can join up their work into one clear route from school to a career, built around what local people say matters most.
