Supporters' trusts

Supporters' trusts are organizations formed by fans of sports teams, particularly football clubs, to have a say in how the club is run. They typically acquire a stake or ownership rights, giving fans a voice in decision-making processes and promoting transparency, community involvement, and sustainable management. These trusts aim to ensure the club remains connected to its supporters' interests and values, often advocating for financial stability, local identity, and long-term success. They serve as a collective way for fans to influence the club's direction while supporting its future.
