Five Tips To Stay Safe ONLINE

 

  • Make all of your social media accounts private.
  • Report any concerns.
  • Don't post any personal information online like your home address, email address or mobile number.
  • Don't add people you don't know or meet up with people you've met online.
  • Think carefully before posting pictures or videos of yourself - Once uploaded, most people can see it and may be able to download it.

Volunteering is a great way to give back to the footballing community. It is the platform that has given me the opportunity to develop my skills both professionally and personally. I wouldn't be the individual I am today without volunteering.
