News Summary:
On July 10, 2026, Charlton Athletic Community Trust (CACT) staff delivered Ahead of the Game workshops at Leigh Academy Wilmington in Dartford, a program by Movember designed to teach young players, parents, coaches, and volunteers about mental health through sport. Previously, on July 3, CACT announced a new partnership with Cray Valley Paper Mills FC, expanding its Post-16 Football & Education Academy programme for the 2026/27 academic year by offering students a full-time football and education curriculum combined with football development in a non-league environment. Earlier, on June 9, Christopher Ward, Charlton Athletic’s Official Time and Sleeve Partner, donated pitch hire time at The Valley to support CACT’s work, allowing various programmes to use the pitch. On May 22, CACT and Oxleas celebrated the extension of their partnership at The O2, with an event hosted by CACT Ambassador Steve Sutherland OBE at TOCA Social, reflecting on the partnership's community impact and future plans. This follows the 2026 Upbeats Walk, which, by May 13, raised £30,363 for CACT’s Down’s syndrome programme after 200 walkers completed a seven-mile trek from Sparrows Lane Training Ground to The Valley on April 25, crossing the finish line before the men’s first-team played Hull City.
