Today marks an exciting new chapter as Foundation 92 officially becomes Salford City FC Foundation.
Founded by the Class of ’92, Foundation 92 has spent recent years empowering, educating and improving lives across Salford and beyond through sport, wellbeing and education. Today’s transition reflects a strengthened alignment with Salford City Football Club and a shared ambition to create an even greater impact across our community.
As the official charity of Salford City FC, our new identity better represents the close relationship between the Club and the community, while building on the strong foundations and legacy established since our launch.
Our Vision
To be a leading force in transforming lives across Salford and beyond, engaging more of our community in sport, wellbeing and education programmes.
Our Mission
We empower, educate and improve lives by reducing inequalities and creating opportunities for the people of Salford.
As Salford City FC Foundation, we will continue to deliver impactful programmes across our three key pillars:
- Education & Employability
- Health & Wellbeing
- Community Engagement
Alongside our new identity, we are launching a long-term strategy focused on increasing participation opportunities, promoting inclusivity, strengthening partnerships and delivering sustainable programmes that create lasting social value.
Martin Ingham-Griffith, CEO of Salford City FC Foundation, said:
“Today marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for our charity. Football clubs have a unique ability to bring people together and create a sense of pride and belonging within their communities, regardless of what happens on the pitch. Our role is to ensure that connection extends far beyond the game itself by creating opportunities, supporting wellbeing and helping people feel part of something positive and meaningful.
“The Class of ’92 will always be an incredibly important part of our story, and the legacy they have helped create through Foundation 92 is something we are immensely proud of. Their vision and commitment have laid the foundations for the work we continue today.
“As Salford City FC Foundation, we look forward to building on that legacy, reaching more people, deepening our impact and ensuring the Club continues to be a source of pride both on and off the pitch.”
Gavin Fleig, CEO of Salford City FC, added:
“Today is a landmark day for both the Football Club and the Foundation. Bringing our organisations together under the Salford City FC Foundation identity strengthens the connection between the Club and our community.
“As a Club with community at its heart, this alignment is fundamental to achieving our shared ambitions, and we are excited about the positive impact we can continue to deliver for the people of Salford through outreach, education and engagement.”
While our name has changed, our purpose remains the same: creating opportunities, reducing inequalities and improving lives across Salford and beyond.
