'Hope United' Launched - Stunning Logo & Kit

Yesterday, British telecom company BT announced the creation of Hope United, which includes various top footballers, as their new project to raise awareness of online abuse.

“Some believe that social media abuse is an inescapable part of life for footballers. Hope United wants to show that this doesn’t have to be the case,” says Jordan Henderson.

Meanwhile, Karen Carney, talks about her past experience with the abuse she received: “It was relentless. I can’t even describe it. I’m low key, a simple girl who loves football. I don’t want to be bombarded on social media platforms. It wasn’t for one hour, it was for three or four days and now it still comes up – people still send me abuse.”

Rio Ferdinand, joint head coach of the team, is hopeful of the project: “I am delighted to have been appointed the manager of Hope United. I’m proud to head up a team of players from across the Home Nations who want to work together in a bid to raise awareness of online hate, and also encourage people to spread positivity and hope ahead of the Euros this summer.”
