What Professionals Say

Revd Christopher Jeremy Bevan

Cure of Souls of Llanelly, Llangattock, Llangynidr.

"I have the seen the beneficial impact that his work has had on the classes and children. I have also seen how he has inspired and encouraged the staff in the schools. I have also participated in the prayer clubs he has initiated in both schools. I have seen how the prayer clubs have continued in both schools, and the ongoing beneficial effect this has had on both the staff and the children; those directly involved, but also those not directly involved.

It is my considered opinion that the effect of Project Touchline and Chris Andrew work has had a lasting effect on the character and the atmosphere of both of the schools.

I would commend Chris Andrew and Project Touchline to any school that cared for its children and staff, and sincerely wished for their improvement and wellbeing.

Ms Holly Skinner

Head Teacher

“Through this initiative, we have seen a true alignment with our vision and values, particularly in the way sport has been used as a powerful vehicle to instil teamwork, resilience, and leadership.

The efforts made to bring Project Touchline to life have not only elevated the profile of physical activity within our school but also reinforced the importance of inclusivity, respect, and determination — principles at the core of our educational ethos. We are proud to see how the program has fostered a spirit of collaboration and has inspired our students to pursue excellence both in sport, the playground and the classroom. Most importantly, the legacy of Project Touchline will continue to shape the way future generations engage with sport and with each other. The lessons learned through this project will have a lasting impact, ensuring that the values we hold dear are passed down and embraced for years to come.

Mr John Meredith

Diocesan Director of Education

“The major impact of Project Touchline is the culture within the schools, especially the way you deliver and model to the staff and children the sessions. This is having lasting impact in all the schools and I can see the techniques being used when I visit impacting the spirituality in the schools. This has been reflected from the inspectors visits.

Prayer Clubs are the amazing in the schools. It is a treat to visit and see them in action with children taking the lead supported by teachers and local clergy. This is so positive and a real lasting impact on spiritual development.”

"It was extremely encouraging to hear about the successful delivery of the programme within 13 Church in Wales primary schools and the programme’s creative approach to teaching values as part of Religion, Values and Ethics (RVE) - Llywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government
