Sophia Axelsson, general secretary of the club’s women’s team, and Louis Burrows collected their Our Game Community Club of the Year award at The Non-League Paper’s National Game Awards in association with Isuzu.
Axelsson moved to London from Sweden in 2015 and joined the club three years later, crediting them with helping her to find ‘family’ in the capital.
Formed just five years ago by disillusioned supporters of Clapton FC, the club is 100 percent fan-owned and have become a beacon of light in their community.
They have built with Clapton Community’s Sophia Axelsson and Louis Burrows partnerships with many local organisations and have organised food bank collections and hardship fund payments for members.
