Street Football Wales
When you’re bearing down on goal, the breath of a defender on your back, you don’t have much time to think about anything other than finding the bottom corner.
That’s not much else like football for helping you forget your troubles, to focus on something else when life is complex. Street Football Wales has built a community around the game, creating opportunities for people who’ve been socially isolated and excluded through an open, inclusive and safe environment in which to play football, make friends and build self-confidence for life after the whistle blows. Mab Gwalia has a long-term relationship with Street Football Wales and its work, culminating in the Homeless World Cup which took place in Cardiff in 2019.
