The Russell Martin Foundation is delighted to announce a new partnership with Pinocchio Pizzeria, an iconic Brighton restaurant that has long been at the heart of the local community. Their generous sponsorship will directly support RMF’s community projects and mental health programmes, helping us continue our mission to inspire, educate and empower people across Sussex.

As part of the partnership, Pinocchio Pizzeria is also sponsoring the Hove Park 3G pitch, home to daily training sessions for young players within the Russell Martin Academy.

The collaboration was marked with a visit from Russell Martin, who met with Carmen, representing Pinocchio Pizzeria, to officially celebrate the partnership.

Speaking about the partnership, Russell said:

“We are incredibly grateful for Pinocchio Pizzeria’s support. Their generosity allows us to continue delivering life-changing programmes, particularly within mental health and community inclusion. It’s fantastic to partner with a business that cares so deeply about giving back to Brighton and Hove.”

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the entire team at Pinocchio Pizzeria.
