Members of the CAFE team recently travelled out to Brussels, Belgium, to attend the ‘The Football We Love’ event.

The event took place from 15-19 May, and brought together people from different areas of football to share experiences, ideas and good practices.

CAFE was one of a large number of exhibitors at the event, introducing the gathered delegates to our works across Europe and Access for All – the UEFA and CAFE Good Practice Guide to Creating an Accessible Stadium and Matchday Experience (available in 13 European languages at http://www.cafefootball.eu/en/access-all).

CAFE Managing Director Joyce Cook also sat on a roundtable discussion on how football can be used efficiently as a tool to improve integration and social equality. Joyce discussed how inaccessible facilities can prevent disabled supporters from attending football matches, and why it was so crucial to address this issue.

The event was hosted by Sport and Citizenship, and for more information about them please click here.
