Manchester United Foundation takes a stand with new Kick It Out initiative

Richard Arnold, Manchester United Managing Director and Chair of Manchester United Foundation, commented: “At Manchester United we have a responsibility to uphold the values of the club by promoting equality, diversity and inclusion throughout our communities, led through the club’s Foundation and the work they do directly within schools.

“Our fans have been incredibly supportive of that and their contributions, by choosing to get ‘Black Lives Matter’ printed on their own replica kits, have created this opportunity to provide real tangible help for the essential work that Kick It Out do. We are delighted that they have linked up with the Foundation to deliver this inclusive programme.

“It’s important to us that our fans, our staff and those we work with in the community continue to embrace the benefits of diversity, encapsulated by our own All Red All Equal campaign. We want them to only ‘see red’ in their support of Manchester United.”
