about the foundation

the mark allen foundation was created with one simple goal: to give back to the people of antrim and surrounding areas who need it the most. whether it's helping a family with essential groceries, supporting a young athlete chasing their dream, or simply offering a helping hand when times are tough, our mission is to lift up those who need it, quietly, respectfully and with heart.

founded by former world number 1 snooker player, mark allen, the foundation grew from years of witnessing just how many people in the community struggle behind closed doors.

having been fortunate in his own career, mark felt deep responsibility to give back to the place that shaped him. this foundation is his way of doing just that - of building a legacy beyond sport.

through fundraising events like coffee mornings, nights at the races, golf days and evenings with sporting starts, we're bringing people together to raise both funds and hopes.

because sometimes, the smallest gesture can make the biggest difference.
