Offside Trust
www.offsidetrust.comIn November 2016, British football was rocked by a series of high-profile revelations regarding child sexual abuse. Several former professional players bravely waived their right to anonymity to speak out about their past abuse. A number of the players involved decided to set up The Offside Trust, a new organisation committed to supporting survivors and working to make sport safer for children. The Trust is led by ex- footballer Steve Walters and former professional golfer Chris Unsworth, whose stories have inspired hundreds of people to speak out for the first time about their abuse. Our aims are to: End abuse in sport, so kids can be kids; and Support the healing journey of survivors of abuse. The Offside Trust already has the support of clubs, players and former professionals throughout the sporting world. We focus on all sports, not just football. We are grateful for the support that we are getting from everyone including the people in cricket, rugby, golf and boxing, helping to raise further awareness across sport. The Offside Trust works alongside governing bodies, charities and organisations that deal with safeguarding.
