Premier League Primary Stars Transition Project launched

We recently launched a new programme in collaboration with the Premier League, which helps children make a smooth change from primary, to secondary school.

The project begins this month, with sessions starting in four primary schools, which will eventually see us launch a summer programme at Cardiff City Stadium, and also see how the students are progressing once they reach comprehensive school.

Dementia Friendly Cardiff Pledge

Following our recent Health Day, we followed up the successful day by pledging to the Dementia Friendly Cardiff campaign in association with Alzheimer’s Society Cymru.

This saw us create a brand-new partnership with the charity which will allow us to start putting our plans into action in the near future.
