Rest in Peace Charlie Hurley
"Charlie Hurley was one of my all-time heroes" - Sir Bob Murray
It’s an honour to be an ambassador for the Building a Stronger Britain Together programme. Football has the power to have a positive influence on our communities promoting the shared values that underpin our society; mutual respect, democracy, free speech, tolerance and opportunities for all.
Luke O’Nien, Sunderland AFC midfielderDave Jeffries, Foundation of Light Skills Lead added: “We work in the heart of the city and deliver in a range of communities. By delivering programmes such as Building a Stronger Britain Together we hope to combat and tackle stigma and discrimination and bring communities closer together.” In October, Foundation of Light hosted a Black History Month event at the Beacon of Light alongside Young Asian Voices and the BAME network in Sunderland. More than 500 people enjoyed activities such as football tournaments, djembe drumming African dancing, food workshops and a fashion show.
