Equality for All
We believe that football is a sport for everyone, regardless of background or ability.
Our Commitment to Fairness
We are dedicated to ensuring fair and respectful treatment for all our members. This means we actively oppose discrimination of any kind, including based on age, gender, gender reassignment, sexual orientation, marital status, race, nationality, ethnicity, religion, disability, or any other characteristic.
We strive to provide equal access and opportunities for everyone in our community to participate and enjoy all our football-related activities.
A Culture of Respect
Harassment, bullying, abuse, or any form of victimisation goes against our core values. We will not tolerate such behaviour and will take appropriate action to address any incidents that occur. This includes taking action against any discriminatory behaviour, whether physical or verbal, including sexual or racial harassment.

We actively identify and address any existing inequalities within the club. We achieve this through ongoing training and awareness-raising initiatives. These programs aim to educate our members about equality and equip them with the tools to recognize and prevent discrimination.
