Switch It (MFC Foundation)
ABOUT THIS PROGRAMME
Switch It is Middlesbrough Football Club Foundation's programme supporting young people aged 11-18 through key transition periods, such as moving from primary to secondary school, returning to a full-time timetable, struggling with attendance or moving to college. The Foundation works alongside Middlesbrough Council to identify and help those most in need, using the Middlesbrough Football Club brand to engage schools and break down barriers to education. In 2024/25, 78 young people took part; in family voice feedback, 100% felt the programme benefited from Foundation staff advocating for the family with the child's school, and 89% said their child was supported socially and emotionally.
