APPLY FOR A PALACE FOR LIFE CHARITY PLACE
Our charity places come with:
- A £35 registration fee
- A £350 fundraising target
- A Palace for Life running top
- Ongoing fundraising support and resources from our expert fundraising team
With one of our official charity places, you’ll be supporting our life-changing work in South London.
Last year, we delivered over 65 hours of free community football every week, but it’s about so much more than the game. Your fundraising could help a young person find their first job, support someone struggling with their mental health, or provide kids in South London schools support to help prepare them for their next stage in life.
