Football for Peace launches #FootballSavesLives

Today Louis and Kate attended Football for Peace’s event at the Copper Box Arena in London to launch the #FootballSavesLives initiative which pledges to train 500 Young Peace Leaders by 2020. The Duke of Cambridge attended the event alongside Football for Peace’s Ambassadors – our own Louis Saha plus Bacary Sagna, Mamadou Sakho, Carlton Cole, Cherno Samba, Mezut Ozil, Matthieu Flamini and Avram Grant.

We are delighted to be partnering with Football for Peace. Through our shared values we are confident that we can make a real difference by uniting and developing communities through the beautiful game of football.

“I’m very pleased we have joined the football movement to help tackle division, discrimination, hate, violence and other issues our world is facing. Sport can change the world and football is the biggest powerhouse.” Louis Saha
