The anti-slavery and human trafficking measures implemented across our business and is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

Our organisation

Footy Addicts is a social platform that connects people with recreational football games organised in local communities. We provide a structure that supports organisers in setting up games and ensures players have access to reliable and organised sessions. The platform is designed to maintain consistency, fairness, and accessibility in all sessions listed, making football accessible and enjoyable for everyone.

Anti-slavery and human trafficking policy

We do not tolerate modern slavery or human trafficking in our organisation. We comply with all applicable labour laws relating to working terms and conditions, including pay, and we place great emphasis on the fair and equal treatment of all our staff. All our staff (including agency workers) are paid at least the National Living Wage.

Our Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy (the "Policy") makes clear our zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and human trafficking. It shows our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships, and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our own business. The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for ensuring the Policy complies with our legal and ethical obligations, and that all those under our control comply with it.

Safeguarding policy

We aim to adopt the highest possible standards and take all reasonable steps to safeguard the adults at risk ("Vulnerable Groups") we engage with. We recognise our duty to promote the welfare and well-being of Vulnerable Groups, to protect them from harm and to respond to abuse, exploitation and safeguarding concerns when they arise. We are committed to providing a safe environment where Vulnerable Groups feel safe, valued and respected.

We have procedures and guidance in place to ensure that staff recognise what constitutes poor practice and abuse, and their responsibilities to respond appropriately.

Supplier due diligence

We expect all our consultants, contractors, suppliers and other business partners (together "Suppliers") to adopt the same high standards that we adhere to. As part of our contracting process, where appropriate, we include specific prohibitions against the use of forced, compulsory or trafficked labour, or anyone held in slavery or servitude, whether adults or children, and we expect that our Suppliers will hold their own suppliers to the same high standards.

Our standard terms and conditions for Suppliers include an express obligation that they comply with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 in both letter and spirit. We also take steps to ensure that there is a provision in our agreements with Suppliers that if a Supplier is found to be in breach of its obligation to comply with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 in both letter and spirit, then we are entitled to terminate that agreement immediately.

Looking to the future

Over the next year, as the business continues to expand, we shall continue to closely review and update, where appropriate, our Supplier due diligence and contracting processes to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our own business or in any of our supply chains.
