I was delighted when Dr Martha Newson approached the Twinning Project regarding the potential to undertake an academic evaluation of our work. The evaluation is fundamental to measuring the impact of our foundations work and crucially demonstrates to partners and potential partners the value of football’s role in contributing to the reduction of reoffending. Martha is professional, experienced and adds significant value to our initiative.
— Hilton Freund, The Twinning Project
