Sir Bobby Charlton applauds MU Foundation's donation of 650 footballs

The footballs are part of wellbeing packs donated to participants of the Foundation’s Street Reds programme, to keep them active over the summer holidays and help them to re-engage with the friends and coaches they have been unable to see due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The packs include Manchester United memorabilia, health and wellbeing information, and an activity calendar to keep participants busy with a new challenge every day throughout August. Street Reds staff distributed the packs to eight sites throughout the week for participants to collect, which was the perfect opportunity for them to reconnect with their peers and coaching staff.
