The Cymru Football Foundation – in collaboration with the Johan Cruyff Foundation and Wrexham County Borough Council – has seem our latest project unveiled at Ysgol St Christopher’s in Wrexham.
Through funding from Sport Wales, the CFF were able to support the largest special school in Wales to develop a brand new space to support pupils from St Christopher’s to enjoy taking part in physical activity in a safe, comfortable environment.
