February Month of Action - Get involved!

Last season, more than 40 professional clubs, leagues, and community trusts / foundations in the men’s and women’s games registered to be FvH Champions, while many more clubs amplified the campaign alongside the EFL’s annual “Rainbow Ball” activation.

For 2026, we want to grow this support and raise greater awareness of the damaging impact of homophobia, biphobia and transphobia in football.

In the pro game, we have seen a rise in the number of Premier League and EFL matches at which anti-LGBTQ+ incidents are being reported, while reports of transphobia made to Kick It Out last season doubled in number.

Register NOW to be an FvH Champion, and you’ll receive our Month of Action Pro Pack. We'll also add you to our FvH Champions 2026 roster.

Whether you want to Designate a Game to FvH (see below) or show support for the campaign in an alternative way, connect with us today to discuss.

Find out how we can support you in your goal of making football more welcoming for everyone.
