More Than Just Football
More Than Just Football
Bath City FC Foundation
We are an independent registered charity based at Twerton Park where we are a central part of the Bath City FC family working closely with the Club’s staff, volunteers, supporters and Directors.
Our charity has a highly skilled team, running programmes across the Bath and North East Somerset area. The power of Bath City FC as a community club and football in general enables us to engage with a wide cross section of people and make a positive impact on thousands of people’s physical and mental well-being each year.

A word from our President
“Bath City thrives when Twerton and the surrounding areas thrive. Our fortunes are linked. That's why the Bath City FC Foundation is here, to bring people together, promote healthy living and play a central part in community life. We began by arranging football coaching in schools, for both boys and girls, and that remains our core activity. But with a bigger team on board we have been able to widen the range of projects we deliver and have plans for much more.
In the aftermath of the pandemic, people's mental health is a concern, and we aim to support those who need help. We will have special activities for older people - life begins at sixty! And, while keeping the boys on their toes, we want to encourage the girls to enjoy the many benefits and sheer excitement of playing football, as the women's game becomes ever more popular. Lots to do and lots to share. We'll hope to see you soon - and come on the City lads! “
Ken Loach, British film maker and Bath City FC Foundation president.
