LFC Foundation to deliver employability qualifications in Merseyside prisons

The LFC Foundation will deliver Sports Leadership courses and qualifications at two Merseyside Prisons to help tackle reoffending rates.

Both HMP Altcourse and HMP Walton have been paired with Liverpool FC's official charity as part of the ‘Twinning Project’: a programme backed by the government and the UK’s leading football bodies, including the FA, Premier League, Football League, PFA, PGMOL and LMA.

Liverpool is one of 32 clubs to be part of the initiative, which will use football as a catalyst for change to provide opportunities and better prepare prisoners for release, find employment and reduce reoffending.
