Durham County FA would like to invite you to The Durham County FA and Partners Conference aimed to Raise  Awareness and Educate; focusing upon current important issues relating to football and sources of support. 

Over the past year, we've held two conferences aimed at Tackling Discrimination and Hate Crime and this will always be a key element of our work. As we continue to deliver events around our County, more opportunities arise to bring in specialist organisations to speak about their area of work and expertise.
