Arsenal and England Lioness Beth Mead has been announced as McDonald’s Fun Football ambassador as she surprised a group of children at a McDonald’s Fun Football session in Vauxhall. The star of the summer took time out of her busy pre-season schedule to open the new centre, The Black Prince Community Hub.
The England hero was on hand to show attendees her skills and pass on advice to the young budding footballers at the new Vauxhall location. The centre will host eight sessions this wave allowing up to 192 children to play football completely for free.
This Autumn McDonald’s will provide Free Fun Football sessions to over 30,000 children aged 5-11 of all abilities across England. Since its re-launch in May, the Fun Football programme has continued to grow, including a 60% increase in girls signing up following an exciting summer for the Lionesses, as more children than ever are inspired to play.
