Safeguarding Awareness Month
We are working extremely hard to build a strong safeguarding framework and culture which protects children, young people and vulnerable adults from physical, sexual or emotional harm and neglect or bullying. Our aim is for Brighton & Hove Albion to become a beacon of excellence in safeguarding good practice not just within our club and community scheme but across the game.
To help drive awareness of safeguarding issues amongst our staff and stakeholders, we have designated November as Safeguarding Awareness Month at the club. During the month our aim is to increase knowledge and understanding of this important issue amongst our employees, our fans, our corporate customers, our community stakeholders and the wider Brighton football family.
You will find more information in the programme and you will also see a short safeguarding film on the big screen prior to kick-off at tomorrow’s game.
Food and Drink
Tomorrow’s special pie will be a sausage & mash pie, in honour of British Sausage Week, and this will be available in all concourse kiosks. There are a limited number of the sausage & mash pies available so get to the concourse early to avoid disappointment.

The guest ale for this fixture is Wainwright’s Ale from the Daniel Thwaites Brewery. This will be available from the North 3 and West Lower 1 kiosks, while Guinness will once again be available in the West Lower concourse as per last season, from a mobile unit.
Bottles of Heineken, Foster’s, Bulmers Red Berry and Bulmers Original will be available from the Foster’s carts on the concourses.
