Linvoy Primus

Since joining Portsmouth Football Club in July 2000 Linvoy Primus has been tireless and unstinting in his work in the community in all walks of its life and In 2001 he co-founded his own charity -'Faith and Football'. The charity was founded to work in partnership with other local agencies and authorities to identify, help and support disadvantaged youngsters aged 7-18 years in areas of multiple deprivation in Portsmouth whose life chances were limited socially and economically. Under his patronage the charity organises and runs sporting and educational programmes in the city. As an example up to 100 volunteers, serving 600 youngsters, run free evening Community Youth Football programmes to provide healthy exercise and aid personal development. Linvoy has also worked as an ambassador for Portsmouth FC in the community and many groups and initiatives large and small continue to benefit greatly from his personal patronage and support.
