Stockton Town Football Club is proud to announce the launch of the Stockton Town FC Community Foundation — a new charitable initiative dedicated to supporting, inspiring, and empowering the people of Stockton-on-Tees through the power of football and community spirit.
From humble beginnings to becoming one of the region’s most successful and admired football clubs, Stockton Town FC has always stood for more than just success on the pitch. The club has grown into a thriving community hub — bringing people together, providing opportunities for young players, and creating a sense of pride across the town.
Now, with the creation of the Stockton Town FC Community Foundation, the club is taking the next step in its journey to make a lasting difference to the lives of local people.
Building on Success, Investing in the Future
The Foundation will build upon the club’s proud record of community engagement, offering programmes and initiatives that focus on:
- Youth development and participation – giving every child the chance to play, learn, and grow through football.
- Health and wellbeing – promoting active lifestyles, mental health awareness, and social inclusion for all ages.
- Education and skills – supporting personal growth, confidence, and learning both on and off the pitch.
- Community cohesion – using football to unite people from all backgrounds and strengthen the community spirit of Stockton-on-Tees.
Through partnerships with schools, local organisations, community groups and the business community, the Foundation will extend the club’s reach far beyond the stadium gates — ensuring that everyone in the community can share in the benefits that football brings.
A Proud Community, A Bright Future
Chairman Martin Hillerby said:
“Stockton Town FC has always been about more than football. We’re proud of what we’ve achieved on the field, but even prouder of the community that surrounds us. The Stockton Town FC Community Foundation will help us give back even more — creating opportunities, supporting those in need, and inspiring the next generation.”
As the Foundation begins its journey, Stockton Town FC invites supporters, local businesses, and community members to get involved — whether through volunteering, partnerships, or simply spreading the word about the positive impact football can have.
Together, we can continue to make Stockton proud — on and off the pitch.
