Where the Trust's work actually lives. Every campaign below is funded by member subs and led by elected directors — concrete advocacy on behalf of Hull City supporters. Member subs make it possible.
Four current focuses for 2026/27. As we settle back into the Premier League, fan welfare and governance matter more, not less.
Seven years on from former Chairman Geoff Bielby's Westminster round table, we're closer than ever to introducing licensed safe standing at the MKM Stadium — giving fans who want to stand a safe way to do it without affecting those who don't. With Premier League return comes a fresh opportunity to align with top-flight infrastructure standards.
We've publicly backed the Football Governance Bill and the introduction of an independent regulator — a position shared by 72 EFL clubs and the FSA. Top-flight finance and ownership cannot be left unsupervised. We continue to engage with our MP and brief the membership on Bill progress.
A formal community partnership with the Hull City DSA, chaired by David Batte. Together we're pushing for better accessibility at the MKM Stadium — sensory rooms, adjustable payment terminals, improved away-match support, and a louder voice in club-side accessibility decisions.
Board director Rachel Gay captained Hull City Ladies, then coached and managed the team through two promotions to Tier 3. She still co-owns the club. That direct link is why the Trust's advocacy for the women's game runs so deep — and why we've sponsored an HCL player every season for seven years, and counting.
Hull City's original home from 1904 — including the original Spion Kop and terraces, among the oldest surviving supporters' structures in English football — has been rediscovered at the Anlaby Road site. Board director Chris Smith is leading conversations with Hull City Council, the National Lottery Heritage Fund, and other partners to secure preservation and public access. This is our signature heritage campaign, and one of the reasons the Trust exists.
Every campaign on this page is paid for by the Trust's membership. No subs, no campaigns. If you believe in this work, fund it.
