FvH is an international initiative that exists to challenge discrimination based on sexual orientation, gender identity and expression at all levels of football.

We want football to take a clear stand against homophobia, biphobia and transphobia so that everyone can enjoy the beautiful game and that football leads the way in removing anti-LGBTIQ+ discrimination and prejudice.

Football v Homophobia was originally conceived and launched in 2010 by the Justin Campaign. A small voluntary-run group, the Justin Campaign was founded in 2008 to demonstrate that 10 years after Justin Fashanu's tragic suicide, homophobia was still hugely prevalent in both grassroots and professional football.

Along with raising awareness, the campaign had a strong focus on art, events and education through football.

In 2012, LGBT+ sports development and equity organisation Pride Sports joined with the Justin Campaign to help deliver Football v Homophobia, and in 2014, the organisation took over the delivery of the campaign altogether.

Whilst the campaign receives wide-ranging support throughout football, core funding for Football v Homophobia is sought on a year-by-year basis.

If you or your organisation/company would like further information about the campaign and find out about more ways to get involved, please email info@footballvhomophobia.com
