This forms part of a nationwide anti-discrimination focus period in football, which will also recognise the contribution made by Kick It Out in tackling discrimination since it was formed 25 years ago.
Kick It Out, football’s equality and inclusion organisation, has worked to challenge discrimination, encourage inclusive practices and campaign for positive change throughout its history.
Initially, the organisation was set up as ‘Let’s Kick Racism Out of Football’ in 1993, and then later established as widening out its objectives to cover all aspects of discrimination, inequality and exclusion.
Manchester United has a long history of working with Kick It Out, with the club having supported the campaign since its development in 1993.
