Wideopen FC is one of the fastest-growing grassroots clubs in the North East. We are embarking on a transformational facilities programme to create a modern, inclusive community sports hub serving 600+ players and thousands of local families.
Several areas within the NE13 postcode fall within the lower deciles of the Index of Multiple Deprivation. Access to structured sport and safe community spaces has a proven positive impact on health outcomes, educational engagement, community safety and mental wellbeing.
Wideopen FC provides affordable, community-led participation for families who rely on local provision. We are not just a football club — we are a community anchor for thousands of people across Wideopen, Seaton Burn and the wider NE13 area.
There is also a critical shortage of quality artificial grass pitches in the area, limiting training, match hosting, female football expansion and school access to modern facilities. Our planned 11v11 4G pitch at Seaton Burn Recreational Ground will directly address this gap.
Ten phases of investment that will transform Lockey Park and create a new community sports asset at Seaton Burn. Corporate partners can align their investment to specific phases that match their CSR priorities.
Every package delivers measurable CSR impact, brand visibility and community legacy. We tailor each partnership to your organisation's goals.
Every donation — large or small — directly contributes to our facilities improvement programme. Help us build something that will benefit thousands of families in NE13 for decades to come.
