How can you help TTC connect to your Club?

  • Ensure we use language (and passion) of Football to engage key staff in your

media/PR and communications teams

  • Support social contact opportunities by suggesting the use of TTC videos for

showing on big screens on match days and TV screens around the stadium

  • Encourage hosting of our videos on your clubs website, Fanzine, Facebook
  • Identify IYG case studies for inclusion in match day programmes and promotion

in local press coverage

  • Work in partnership locally to maximise your impact in the community
  • Ask your Football Club to sign the Organisational Pledge joining the Premier

League, Arsenal, Blackburn Rovers, Stoke City and a host of other national supporters of Time to Change

We Can Support You!
