Clare is joined by Tom and Tino from The Fàilte Network, a newly established charity using Celtic FC as a vehicle to welcome refugees and asylum seekers into the club, the community and the match day experience.
The discussion explores the origins of the project and how football can be a powerful tool for connection, solidarity and belonging.
Topics include:
• The story behind The Fàilte Network and why it was created
• How Celtic matchdays can provide respite from the challenges facing refugees and asylum seekers
• The parallels between Irish immigration and modern migration
• Why grassroots solidarity remains important within the Celtic support
• Challenging misconceptions around refugees and asylum seekers
• The role football can play in integration and community building
• Experiences of bringing young refugees to Celtic Park
• The support received from fan groups including the Green Brigade and North Curve
• What a typical Fàilte Network matchday looks like
• How supporters can get involved and help the charity grow
