Hereford FC appointed their first female director, Helen Byard, yesterday.
Byard became the club welfare officer last season.
Last August former chairman Ken Kinnersley told BN about her role which originally came about when the club took over the academy from UITC.
"We
did everything as professionally as we could, we took advice and
implemented best practice wherever possible. Importantly, we've now
engaged a top quality welfare officer who oversees the Academy, in fact
she now oversees the whole football club and is a real asset."
Who is she?
"Her name is "Helen Byard and she joined the club last season. Helen has attended all the relevant FA courses and is present at all meetings where safeguarding is relevant. I am delighted to say that there are a number of initiatives she plans to introduce and these will benefit a lot of people within the club."
