Nottingham Forest Disabled Supporters Associaction

Nottingham Forest DSA are a group of volunteers, fans with diverse disabilities and carers. Set up in April 2022 and launched in March 2023, NFDSA aims

“To work independently and in partnership with Nottingham Forest Football Club, to promote awareness and seek equality for all Nottingham Forest Supporters with a visible or hidden disability“.

We do this in a variety of ways; assisting individuals with specific issues, providing information, raising awareness and understanding amongst Forest Staff and fans, working together to find practical solutions and organising social and other activities. We also represent Forest disabled fans on the NFFC Fans Advisory Board ( FAB), the Premier League Disability Working Group; we work with other DSAs and are a Member of Level Playing Fields.
