Presented by Blackbird Leys and Greater Leys residents & the university's Cultural Programme, we were invited to bring Football on the Brain activities to the 2024 Leys Festival: "a vibrant free community festival, full of exciting activities, delicious affordable food and live performances that bring everyone together in celebration".
Held at Blackbird Leys Park, we enjoyed meeting local residents – including lots of children! – and sharing our hands-on activities with them to spark interest in how neuroscience is relevant to football.
