Are you interested in joining Trust’s Digital Comms Team?

Red Imps Community Trust’s mission is to support (i) the club, (ii) the fans and (iii) the community. To make it easier to achieve that mission, we adopted a new structure last year. Members are now elected with leadership responsibility for each of those three key tasks. Leaders are also elected with responsibility for relationships with external organisations, such as the Football Supporters’ Association, which has been identified as a fourth crucial role. Volunteers (including a Communications Team) assist the various leaders’ projects.

Thanks to the leaders’ enthusiastic embrace of their new roles, a huge amount of positive work is going on. We are a thriving, dynamic organisation, providing valuable services. It’s imperative that news of our activities should be shared as widely as possible. Readers of the Lincolnshire Echo can still learn about Trust activities through a regular column in that traditional newspaper. Nowadays, however, most of the Trust’s communications with our 6,500+ members are in digital form, via our social media channels, e-mailshots and website.

We are looking to expand the team of volunteers running our digital communications operations. Can we improve the content of the messages that we generate? Can we use better the evolving technology available to convey those messages? If you are interested in helping us out, please email Rob Bradley at rgbradley50@hotmail.com or pop over for a chat at the Trust Pod in the Fan Village before any home match. All required support and training will be provided by our existing Comms Team members.

Supporting our Fans

On 24th October, the Government announced the launch of the new Football Governance Bill, which has been strengthened in a number of area. Areas of interest of particular interest to fans are likely to be the role of an Independent Regulator, financial redistribution across the EFL and supporter representation. It is anticipated that the parliamentary process of formally adopting the Bill will take until Summer 2025.

Through the work of our Trust, we are in regular dialogue with the Football Supporters Association (FSA), and this work is now headed up by one of our new Trust Board Members, Julian Buttery. Going forward, he will look to provide further information on fan-related issues and campaigns that the FSA is engaged with through this website and through our social media channels.

For those interested in the detail of the Bill can find it HERE
