Building Community + Social Impact Through Soccer (Football) With Chris Roberts, Co-Founder Of The North Wales Dragons

Show Notes: If you are a soccer / football fan, then this episode is for you! You’ll meet Chris Roberts, founder and executive director of the North Wales Dragons, a not-for-profit soccer (ahem - football) team out of the UK that has raised funds for charities since they got their start in 2009. He tells the story of how a simple doodle forever changed his life, leading him “into Milan.”

Corinna Bellizzi & Chris Roberts connect more deeply as the episode progresses, as both open up about their struggles to stay positive in the face of COVID lockdown after COVID lockdown. They share personal experiences, and how important talking about mental health is -- and even how podcast might just help us all feel and stay more connected with one another. 

About Our Guest: Chris Roberts is the co-founder of the award winning North Wales Dragons Community Football Team, helping to raise awareness for the many challenges to the social issues we face in the modern world. He is a sustainability champion who has served many companies as he helps them build corporate social sustainability programs.
