Holds the club to account
We aim to ensure the club is operating within the values and standards that supporters expect.
The Foxes Trust was formed in 2002, at a time when Leicester City was in administration and the very future of the club was in doubt. Around 700 supporters attended the inaugural meeting, and together fans raised over £150,000 to help secure the club's future — playing a part in the successful consortium that saved Leicester City.
More than two decades on, that founding belief still drives us: that supporters deserve a meaningful, independent voice in how their club is run.
We aim to ensure the club is operating within the values and standards that supporters expect.
Completely independent of Leicester City FC, so we can speak freely and honestly on behalf of supporters.
One member, one vote. Our board is elected by members and every role is undertaken voluntarily.
We build support important initiatives that are important to our members, across the city and the county.
The Foxes Trust aims are:
To maintain a democratic, independent and not-for-profit organisation that represents the best interests of Foxes Trust members and by extension those of the supporters of Leicester City Football Club.
To lobby, campaign and engage in regular, constructive dialogue with Leicester City Football Club, at executive level, and to publicise, when relevant, any resultant actions taken.
To hold Leicester City Football Club and its owners to account for the highest standards of business management, and operational and commercial decisions that directly affect Foxes Trust members and the wider supporter base.
To develop long-lasting relationships with members of the Leicester City Football Club supporting community.
To engage with national supporter organisations to lobby administrators and governors of the national game — including football leagues, government, local authorities and officials — regarding issues that affect supporters of all football clubs.
To enable a member of the Foxes Trust to be elected to any form of Leicester City Football Club shadow supporters' Board, such as a Fans' Advisory Board.
To formalise the Foxes Trust's relationship with Leicester City Football Club by instituting a Memorandum of Understanding.
To enable a member of the Foxes Trust Board to be democratically elected to the Board of Leicester City Football Club and to enshrine such a post in the Club's Memorandum and Articles of Association.
At the earliest practical opportunity, achieve an ownership stake in Leicester City Football Club.
Your elected, volunteer board.
The board works through five subgroups — Communications, Community & Representation, LCFC Women, Finance & Operations, and Membership — each chaired by a board member and drawing on volunteers across the wider membership.
