Long-established Aberdeen business, Fowler McKenzie, has extended its support of Aberdeen FC Community Trust (AFCCT) and the School of Football programme at St Machar Academy, reaffirming its commitment to making a positive difference within the local community.

The School of Football programme provides young people with access to a dedicated initiative designed to support their personal and educational development. Delivered through the medium of football, the programme helps participants develop the skills required for life, learning and work - building confidence, leadership and teamwork -while also working towards an SQA qualification.

Fowler McKenzie has been a valued supporter of AFCCT for many years and became an official partner in 2025 - reflecting the trust they place in our work to change young lives for the better. They have now confirmed their support again for the next academic year.

AFCCT Chief Executive, Peter Davidson, said:

“We’re really grateful to Phil McKenzie and everyone at Fowler McKenzie for their support over the years. Their funding makes a real difference, and it was great that Phil took the time to visit and hear directly from the young people about the impact on their attainment and achievement. That support means a lot and allows us to continue making a genuine difference.

Fowler McKenzie’s ongoing support will ensure the School of Football programme continues to deliver positive outcomes for young people at St Machar Academy in the year ahead.
