ENGLISH FOOTBALL TAKES SAFEGUARDING EXTREMELY SERIOUSLY.

The ongoing work to make the game as safe and enjoyable as possible is led by The FA, the game’s governing body in this country. This work is delivered through County FAs such as ourselves in conjunction with leagues and clubs

Our dedicated team are here to support and assist with any queries you might have regarding safeguarding within your club, the County FA and football in general.

Safeguarding is Everyone’s Responsibility

Are you a young person worried about abuse?

Its scary. Your head will be telling you lots of things. I’m frightened. I won’t be believed. Where do I go? This isn’t right.

 There are people you can turn to. You need to be brave (we get that), and we know its going to be hard. If your family or friends aren’t the right people for you to go to, there are many others who can help you.

If you need immediate help then contact:
