Hillsborough Charter

Ryan Clement

As a sports’ fan, As one that attends many live sports’ events with and without my son, As a barrister, As a football fan, As a Liverpool fan, The Hillsborough Disaster was and is immensely painful.

Families of the victims have been pushing for ‘Hillsborough law’ to outlaw alleged police cover-ups after major incidents.

In December 2023 the Government signed the Hillsborough Charter, which stops short of what many wanted.

For those of you who are not familiar with what happened on that tragic day, in brief and in grief, 97 Liverpool fans died as a result of a crush at the Hillsborough stadium in Sheffield during the club’s FA Cup semi-final against Nottingham Forest on 15 April 1989. Gone too soon! 🥲
