New applicants invited for Fans' Forum and Access Forum

Chelsea Football Club wants fans to become members of the Fans' Forum and Access Forum in the upcoming season. This is a chance for fans to express their thoughts to the club and contribute to enhancing the overall experience for all supporters.

The Forums provide an avenue for supporters to express their opinions on important game and operational issues that have an impact on them. Their main objective is to encourage a positive and beneficial communication between the club and its fans, delving into matters that are of concern to supporters and creating a platform to brainstorm innovative ways of improving supporter involvement.

The Access Forum is a group that speaks for individuals who need accommodations to access services.

Normally, there are three gatherings per season for each Forum that take place at Stamford Bridge when there are no matches happening. When it is possible, representatives are allowed to participate in meetings via the internet.

In order to display the assortment of fans supporting Chelsea, a range of representatives are chosen from different fan bases.

The Fans' Forum has openings available for different positions in the upcoming season. Each position has only one vacancy, and if you fall into the applicable category, you are eligible to apply.
