Community Champion
Sean Bailey

Sean Bailey is being given the award for his work in creating the Cerebral Palsy United Football Club.

Sean suffered serious neck and spinal injuries playing football and thought he would never walk again. His determination to defy the odds means he has recovered, although is unable to run or play himself.

He therefore decided to put his energy and love into creating the club for anyone with cerebral palsy or brain injuries.

Sean invites football stars to training sessions and arranges visits to other stadiums to enhance his players’ experience.
