The recently launched expert group will explore the areas of supporter ownership and engagement. The group was developed in partnership with Supporters Direct- whose mission is to increase the influence of supporters through ownership and involvement in their clubs - and with the support of football authorities. Relevant experts and stakeholders will be called upon to contribute to the discussion of the group’s agreed priorities.

The chair and the FA will convene the first meeting, where the Terms of Reference, including agreed priorities and the schedule of meetings and reports, will be approved.
