A partnership has been agreed between Chesterfield FC Community Trust and HerGameToo.
HerGameToo was founded by 12 passionate female football fans who are committed to growing the campaign with the aim of fostering an ethos in football in which women are welcomed and respected equally.
Alyss Jackson, who is the Trust’s women and girls’ inclusion officer, has welcomed the link-up with HerGameToo.
Alyss said: “The organisation’s aims include creating awareness, providing education, developing a strong sense of community and building a more welcoming environment for women and girls within football.
“This reflects what we are trying to achieve as a Trust. A strong women’s programme is being developed, which includes girls’ academy sides and a women’s first team.
“We are also launching women’s walking football sessions and Weetabix Wildcats sessions for girls aged 5 to 11.
“We look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship with HerGameToo.”
