Our Mission Building sustainable communities around sport facilities, connecting
visionary actors in sport, development, politics and business to community needs
and opportunities.Dream Fields was created by former colleagues from
international football who wanted to use their experience in sport for the good
of communities around the world. In their daily work, Colin, David, Emilia and
Stuart had witnessed the power of sport first hand, be it in the incredible
stories of women who fought against all odds just to get the chance to play the
beautiful game, or in the children kicking a makeshift ball in a slum where the
game seemed to wipe off their worries and create the brightest of smiles on
their faces. Dream Fields was born out of the hope to spread this joy and grow
it into sustainability livelihoods for communities where everyone has the right
to play. The Dream Fields concept was born from this search for not merely
‘sport for good’ but ‘sport for sustainable and prosperous communities’. In
2021, co-founder Stuart decided to embark on a journey to better understand the
real issues around sport and sustainability. As part of a course with the
Cambridge Institute of Sustainability Leadership, he presented a general concept
of how a sports facility could become the focal point of driving a local economy
with a heavy focus on environmental sustainability, ultimately hoping to reach
the level of interdependence seen in various symbiosis projects globally. After
completing the programme, Stuart shared the concept with former colleagues
Colin, David and Emilia. As the concept grew wings, Samy joined the team to
bring in his operations and engineering expertise. - Dream Fields was born.
