The football group has helped to put smiles on the faces of refugees in Derby
“Due to the accommodation being transitional, we have new people joining the project all the time and some of the stalwarts being moved on to different parts of the country, there is a constant flow of people. The 39-year-old, who is based in Nottingham, said there is one member who has “slight cognitive issues” who really benefits from participating.“He’s so happy to participate, just run around and be part of the group.”
Mr Szukaj said he tries to “talk about the present and football” with the team, rather than asking the players about the situations that led to them fleeing their countries of birth, but some of the reasons include war.
