For the fourth year in a row, Burnley FC in the Community picked up the Community Club of the Year (Premier League) award at last night’s Northwest Football Awards.
Honoured for the ongoing impact the charity is having across East Lancashire, the Clarets’ official charity beat both Manchester City in the Community and Everton in the Community to claim the award.
Brian Nelson, Chair of Trustees for BFCitC and Burnley FC Director, said: “I am thrilled that Burnley FC in the Community have received this honour once again. For the fourth year in a row, the team are making their mark in the footballing world for delivering their life-changing work.
