Play Forward: Creating Spaces, Inspiring Futures

Empowering young people and local communities in Birmingham through sport, opportunity, and sustainable support.

The Kaizen Foundation is excited to partner with the Aston Villa Foundation to bring Play it Forward to Birmingham.

This initiative uses sport as a catalyst for change, providing 350+ hours of activities for young people in under-resourced communities. Beyond play, it empowers seven local grassroots organisations with funding, training, and development support to grow sustainably. The project also introduces innovative multi-use community spaces, creating safe hubs where young people can learn, connect, and thrive.

By combining Kaizen Foundation’s global vision with Aston Villa Foundation’s local expertise, Play it Forward is shaping brighter futures and stronger communities.
