The Solihull Moors Foundation

The Solihull Moors Foundation is the official charitable arm of Solihull Moors Football Club, created to inspire positive change and strengthen communities across Solihull and the wider region. Built on the belief that sport has the power to transform lives, the foundation delivers a wide range of programmes designed to support physical health, mental wellbeing, education, social inclusion, and personal development.

At the heart of the foundation is a commitment to making football accessible for everyone. Through inclusive sessions, community projects, and outreach work, the charity aims to remove barriers that prevent people from taking part in physical activity. Whether engaging young people, older adults, individuals with disabilities, or those who may feel isolated, the foundation creates safe, supportive environments where people can enjoy being active, build confidence, and make meaningful connections.

One of the foundation’s biggest strengths is its ability to work collaboratively with local partners, schools, charities, and community organisations. These relationships allow the foundation to identify local needs and deliver programmes that truly matter to residents. From school engagement sessions and mental health workshops to walking football initiatives and disability-friendly sports activities, the foundation ensures its work reaches individuals who benefit most from support and encouragement.

Beyond physical activity, the Solihull Moors Foundation champions education and personal development. Many of its programmes focus on improving life skills, supporting young people with positive role models, and providing opportunities for participants to grow both on and off the pitch. Through mentoring, educational support, health awareness sessions, and targeted community events, the foundation empowers individuals to make positive choices and develop resilience.

Wellbeing is also a central focus. The foundation understands the powerful link between activity, social connection, and mental health. Many of its initiatives — such as walking football, community exercise groups, and inclusive sports — are designed not only to keep people active but also to reduce loneliness, improve confidence, and encourage a sense of belonging. These sessions give participants a chance to enjoy regular companionship, feel valued, and build a supportive network around them.

The foundation also plays an important role in promoting equality, diversity, and inclusion. It works hard to create programmes where everyone, regardless of background, ability, age, or experience, feels welcome. By offering accessible sessions and listening to the needs of local residents, the foundation helps ensure that sport in Solihull remains a positive, open, and enjoyable space for all.

As the charitable heart of Solihull Moors Football Club, the foundation continues to grow year by year. Through fundraising events, partnerships, community donations, and volunteer support, the charity is able to expand its reach and deliver more life-changing programmes to those who need them most. Its impact can be seen not only in improved health and wellbeing, but also in the friendships formed, confidence gained, and opportunities created for people across the community.

The Solihull Moors Foundation stands as a proud example of how football can bring people together, inspire hope, and make a lasting difference. Its mission is simple yet powerful: to help individuals thrive and to build stronger, healthier, and more connected communities through the love of sport.
