As well as being busy on the pitch, we’d also class ourselves as pretty active when it comes to our digital footprint – making the most of the opportunity to keep parents up to date with what’s going on at the club, and using it as a platform to show how proud we are of our players.

But while we’re keen to use our social media accounts and club website to support our sponsors, and sing about any achievements, we’re committed to doing so safely and responsibly.

We understand that the FA’s requirements around safeguarding apply to an online environment as much as the offline world, and aim to follow best practice in social media and technology use – adhering to FA guidance.

As part of that commitment, we’ve signed up as a supporter of today’s Safer Internet Day – and are keen to help promote safe, responsible and positive use of digital technology for children and young people.
