FC United of Manchester is a community football club based in Moston, North Manchester. We have a principled commitment to be of benefit to our local community and to work with everyone in the community through an inclusive ethos that resonates with our membership. We are passionate and understanding of the wider role that football clubs can play in assisting communities local to them. Our community programme is varied and not exclusive to football or sport - ‘we do things differently’ and our community programme is evidence of this. FC United - Football & Community United.
FC United’s manifesto states that “The club will develop strong links with the local community and strive to be accessible to all, discriminating against none”. As we know there are increasing tensions in our communities around immigration and as a consequence sadly an increase in incidents of racism.
We’re thrilled to announce that FC United of Manchester has been honoured with the “Our Manchester” Award at the Manchester Sports Awards 2025, recognising our club’s outstanding contribution to the local community.
