Alex Lights Up Disability Group
News
Yesterday evening saw Swindon Town’s Alex Pritchard visit one of the Swindon Town Football in the Community Trust PAN 
Disability sessions. Held at Swindon Academy on Thursdays, the session runs 5 – 6pm and is delivered to children with acute physical disabilities and special educational needs . As published last week, the Community Trust have invited the Swindon Town players to become Trust Project Ambassadors with Alex the next in line to be unveiled as part of a fantastic Football League Trust and Professional Footballer’s Association (PFA) initiative. On loan from Tottenham Hotspur, Alex has set the County Ground alight this season with his superb performances establishing himself as a very talented youngster, and he was delighted to be unveiled as the Community Trust’s Disability Ambassador for the season. Clive Maguire, STFITC Joint Trust Manager, who leads on the Disability programme said: “Alex’s visit was truly inspirational to the children which saw him join in the coaching session led by our Community Coach, Allan Minns. Alex joined in with great enthusiasm and it was really good to see how the children responded to his empathy and understanding, but most of all their enthusiasm to show him what they were capable of. I’d like to thank Karen Randall at STFC for also attending the session with Alex which will be something the young participants will remember for a long time.” A big thanks to Alex, we’re all looking forward to your next visit!
