St. Mirren Partnership
һФһÂë±ØÖÐ has an innovative partnership with St Mirren Football Club, which is supported by the St Mirren Independent Supporters Association (SMISA). We combine the youth-centred, educational and commercial expertise of һФһÂë±ØÖÐ, with St. Mirren’s first-class sporting facilities and national profile.
һФһÂë±ØÖÐ’s partnership has the intention to bring meaningful change to the lives of young people in care at һФһÂë±ØÖÐ and to St Mirren as well as the wider Paisley community. Both organisations share a dedication to the community and aim to address local deprivation and exclusion through youth employment, community engagement, initiatives and activities.
Due to the scale of the organisations and by combining our resources, there is great potential to create community-wide projects for all to benefit. Furthermore, һФһÂë±ØÖÐ’s education and training centre, The Skills Academy includes locations within St Mirren’s stadium and training complex for care-experienced young people to gain learning opportunities that will take place in a real-life setting and help them to build a career they enjoy.
