Announcement - Blaby District Spartans Trustee
I am really proud to share that I have recently been appointed a Trustee of Blaby District Spartans, a pan‑disability football charity that puts inclusion, community, and pure love of the game at the heart of everything it does. It is a privilege to support an organisation that creates genuine joy and belonging through accessible football, and to be part of a team where every player is valued for exactly who they are.
Blaby & District Spartans began in 2020 with a simple but powerful aim: to open up football to people with disabilities and give them a safe, supportive space to play, grow, and have fun. Their sessions bring together players from across the area, and the atmosphere is always full of encouragement, laughter, and teamwork.
Being asked to join the Board of Trustees is something I am truly humbled by. I am excited to work with the team to help the charity continue to grow - not just in Leicester, but hopefully reaching even more people across the country in the future.
In my professional life as a Chartered Legal Executive Litigator I am hoping to bring my experience in governance, compliance, and risk management to the role. My aim is to support clear decision‑making, strong safeguarding, and the kind of organisational structure that helps a charity thrive long‑term.
As a Trustee, I am committed to helping the charity deliver safe, inclusive football opportunities for children and adults with additional needs. Together with the rest of the team, I will be focusing on strengthening governance, developing robust policies, and supporting strategic planning that protects the charity’s values and ensures its sustainability for years to come.
