Sky Sports supports the White Ribbon Campaign (WRC), a global movement of men and boys working to end male violence against women and girls.
November 25th of each year is Worldwide White Ribbon Day and United Nations Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
Sky Sports is proud to continue supporting White Ribbon, England and Wales’ leading charity working with men and boys to end violence against women and girls.
White Ribbon’s mission is to create a culture where abuse is never tolerated and everyone plays a role in countering harmful attitudes and behaviors. By supporting this campaign, we strengthen our commitment to respect, equality and safety for all.
As part of its long-standing support of the campaign, Sky Sports will produce a short film detailing the initiative, with on-screen contributors wearing white ribbons as a visible pledge to end violence against women and girls.

White Ribbon UK said: “Sexism, left unchecked, puts women and girls at risk. Sexist jokes, abuse, glares and comments may seem harmless, but they are serious because they can lead to violence and abuse.”
“This White Ribbon Day, we want more men to speak out and create a world where everyone is safe, equal and respected.
“Every time we ignore something that doesn’t feel right, we miss an opportunity to set a better example.”
