Full Statement:
“This report and collaboration provides an opportunity to see equal, diverse and inclusive hope to the young people on the streets and in our communities where lives are being lost and must now be inspired by the diversity leadership of the Boards and organisations of Sport and our Social Coaches who will motivate and engage them mentally, physically and emotionally to develop in life.”
“Sporting Equals is proud to be supporting the Youth Charter and the very vital work this report highlights. We have been campaigning and advocating for greater racial equity across the sector and having reflected on Olympic and Paralympic Games we continue to feel disappointed by the stark lack of diversity in elite talent which this report both echoes and reinforces. It is unacceptable that the benefits of sport are not felt unanimously across all communities. The work the Youth Charter is engaging in to rectify this is commendable and critically important.”
Over the past 28 years, the Youth Charter message has been inspired by over 240 sporting, artistic and cultural ambassadors who have signed the Youth Charter Scroll in support of our work.

The Youth Charter has identified 900 Athletes and 50 Governing Bodies from the current generation of British Sport and we would also like those from the world of culture, art and society to 'sign up' or 'sign out' to support our efforts.
