Welcome to the 2020 STAFF Rochdale AFC Community Trust Impact Report. Keith Hicks Siobhan McElhinney Trust Manager Assistant Trust This document has been put together to showcase the impact we have had on our communities in 2020. Manager

During a Covid-19 hit year, we have had to adapt our work and respond to the needs of our community more than ever before. With matchday operations ceased, schools closed, social distancing restrictions and national lockdowns, our usual pattern of work has taken a back seat and we have found new opportunities to engage and support the people of Rochdale. Emma Flynn Syed Ali Coach Community We have been well supported by numerous partners and agencies throughout the year who have been able to support our Cohesion Officer work with funding that enabled us to deliver our ‘Covid Response’ and protected our staff and supply chain when they Graham Hicks Steve Lorimer needed it the most. It is COVID-19 relief grants and the UK Government’s furlough scheme that have kept us ‘in the black’ Premier League Schools and this year. Primary Stars/Kicks Community Coordinator Programmes We have seen a significant increase in our turnover from 2019. This is due mainly to the capital expenditure of the Kick Pitch at the Crown Oil Arena, thanks to significant investment from a range of partners, with the much overdue works securing a base for many of our activities for the future.

2020 also marks the final year of service from Keith Hicks, Community Trust Manager, who stepped down at the end of the year after 32 years at the helm. Emily Harrison Liam Whitehead NCS Coordinator Casual Coach This Impact Report is a final show reel of the work Keith has produced year upon year since 1987 and a snapshot of the impact and legacy Keith leaves as he heads into retirement.

CASE STUDY

“Been a season ticket holder for many years, and I have watched the Dale since Dave Sutton days. Always felt I was part of something different and a bit special being a Dale supporter.

Last year wasn't feeling too good and was finally diagnosed with blood cancer. Spent six weeks in Christies having chemo and stem cell transplant this summer and knew I wouldn't be able to go to games for a long time after discharge as my immune system is shot at.

Well, this afternoon I got a phone call out of the blue from EMMA at the football club to see 1500+ 2000+ how I was coping with the lockdown, and t check I wasn't having issues accessing Ifollow. Social media hits Social media hits 450+Individuals supported She had a lovely, if somewhat traumatic for her, chat with my wife, who's also a long term through calls season ticket holder. I can't imagine ANY other football club taking this trouble to contact their 'senior season ticket holders'.

It's given me a real boost and confirmed what I already knew deep in my heart. What we have at Spotland is something special. We are a big family, with all the ups and downs that go with being part of a big family. Today was a real up for me.
