Show Racism The Red Card Board For AFC Mansfield
Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom
Aim
Project to raise £400 to fund a Show Racism The Red Card billboard at Forest Town Arena, Home of AFC Mansfield in Nottinghamshire.
Who are we?
Why are we crowdfunding?
AFC Mansfield is a Community Based Football Club based at the Forest Town Arena in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire. We have a senior team that currently play in The United Counties League Premier Division (North) - step 5 of the English non-league Pyramid, Step 9 of the overall Football Pyramid. We are committed to inclusivity and combatting division and discrimination. As Vice Chairman I have taken up the cause of getting a Show Racism the Red Card billboard to show our support for the football based anti-racism charity and anti-discrimination more generally.
How we’ll spend the money raised
The money raised will pay the standard commercial fee for the first year of displaying a billboard around the Arena perimeter - money that will be paid to the creator of the billboard and to the club itself to support continuing running costs.
Community impact
The Arena is used for all home fixtures of AFC Mansfield and also for some of the games of Woodhouse Colts sides. In addition the Arena is used for community events such as funfairs, children's events, bonfire night, charity fundraising games and celebrations. As such the board will be seen by many members of the public over at least a year.
