FvH is an international initiative opposing
homophobia in football. In England it is the
FA’s endorsed campaign to tackle homophobia
and prejudice against lesbian, gay bisexual
and transgender (LGBT) people in grassroots
football. Across football in the UK it is the largest
specifically designed campaign to tackle issues
around homophobia, biphobia and transphobia.
In Europe, FvH is backed by FARE and works
alongside individuals and clubs across the
continent. FvH runs around the year to enable
people to take action against prejudice and
discrimination based on sexuality or gender identity
in football, and to celebrate and welcome diversity.
FvH provides support, communication
materials, education and training to
enable anyone – including fans, LGBT
communities, grassroots teams, professional football
clubs and football authorities – to communicate
and promote the message that football is for
everyone. FvH culminates with a month of action
in February where there is an international show
of unity to stand up against homophobia and
prejudice against LGBT people in football.
We strive to:
1. Make existing football structures safe, welcoming
and inclusive for LGBT people
2. Create opportunities for LGBT people to engage
with football
3. Improve representation of LGBT people throughout
football
