The programme is designed for young people who have additional learning support needs and who wish to become more active whilst learning and developing their confidence.

The Falkirk Work Academy provides a comprehensive suite of soft and technical skills-based activities designed to get people engaged and ready for work, delivered by our experienced staff in the environment of a professional football club.

Due to these projects, the Falkirk Foundation engages with 1100 people from 18 months to 95 years old each week and have built a great knowledge in the area of football participation.
