Thanks to Sam and the team at @FOAMS4SPORTS for their work on this project!
For those who have not yet seen it for themselves, we are pleased to be able to confirm that protective safety padding on the retaining wall beneath the main stand at the Vestacare Stadium has been successfully installed.

As the summer holidays come to an end, let's highlight some of the incredible community outreach our coaches have delivered over the last 6 weeks!
📊 The numbers:
• 16 days of HAF holiday camp provision
• 15 free community sessions across 2 locations in Oldham for boys and girls
• 1 football event with local organisations
• 1 girls football event
• trip to amusement park
• The FA's The Greater Game football festival
• Plus Friday night football every week
🎉 Over 500 children have participated in football with us this summer!
Our coaches might look like they're about to drop the hottest album of 2026 in this photo, but they've actually been too busy dropping incredible sessions for young people across Oldham! ⚽️🎤
Huge thanks to our partners and funders who make this work possible.
Looking forward to what's next 👀

Huge thanks to the coaches and volunteers who dedicate their time week after week to create opportunities for around 500 children! And to all the people working behind the scenes to make it happen! 🙌
Football at grass roots level is all about volunteers, and this lot are as good as it gets. A massive thank you to @WeActTogether for the funding support which allowed us to bring them all together to celebrate the end of one season and the beginning of the next!

This isn't just about funding – it's about transformation - creating a lasting legacy and making a real, tangible difference in our community where it matters most.
This investment means we can:
🌱 Implement energy-efficient measures to create a more sustainable stadium
🔒 Enhance safety across the site
🤝 Make our facilities more accessible and welcoming to the entire community
Driving these funding applications from start to finish has been a challenging but incredibly rewarding journey. Now comes the exciting part – bringing these improvements to life!
Thanks to @shah_arooj @OldhamCouncil for believing in our vision and making this possible.
