Bishop Auckland FC and Bishop Auckland FC u23’s are supporting the Offside Trust.
The Offside Trust has been set up by several, very brave, past footballers who recently waived their anonymity to speak out about their abuse. They are committed to supporting the survivors and are working to make sport a safer place for children.
The Trust has already had so much success and after bravely, battling for justice and sharing their story through a recent documentary they have supported so many others to come forward, talk and open up about their painful secrets.
BAFC and BAFC u23’s are keen to pledge publicly that Safeguarding is high on their agenda and support the Offside Trust with the fantastic work they have done and continue to do.
Pictured above is Offside Trust Ambassador, Dion Raitt, with BAFC Captain, Nick Hood and BAFC u23 Captain, Regan Nixon.
Let’s all support the Offside Trust in making footballer a safer place.
