Community work
The team will be painting a massive community building in Marikissa and the Paper & Plastic recycling building in Fagi Kunda.
FG will run an ‘Art Academy’ to nurseries across The Gambia showing Gambian teachers teaching techniques for fun art lessons and getting the kids to express themselves through painting.
There are other mini projects going on as well with St. Albans City Youth FC, Middlesex University and Sutton Utd working with local football academies.
We will also be playing 5 matches in the evenings in Brikama, Sittanunku, Gunjur, Lamin and Serekunda which will attract some large crowds.
