Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford has made a significant contribution to Beeston Primary School to help provide children with the technology needed for remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. His donation specifically aimed to tackle the “digital divide” ensuring that students from low-income backgrounds were not left behind while schools were closed. 

Bamford’s initiative directly supports the pillar of High Levels of Human Capital, SDG 4: Quality Education and SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities. By providing the tools necessary for continued education during a global crisis, he helped ensure that the skill development and potential of local youth were not stalled by external hardships.
