Our mission is to empower and raise the voices of women, girls and non-binary people of Aston Villa Football Club, encompassing supporters, staff, players, the local community and the wider game of football.
Welcome to Villa Bellas, where football knows no bounds.
Established in early 2022, our journey began on International Women's Day with a clear purpose; to create an inclusive space where everyone, regardless of gender, feels safe and welcome both on the pitch and in the stands.
At Villa Bellas, we celebrate the unity of football, bridging the gap between women's and men's football whilst honouring the unique identities of each.
Central to our vision is the importance of ensuring female fans feel safe and welcome in the realm of men's football. Our ethos is rooted in dismantling sexism and misogyny, championing the voices of women and non-binary people in football, and cultivating an environment where all supporters feel empowered and valued. It is imperative that women have a voice and a sense of security as supporters, regardless of the team they follow.
Equally, we champion women's football at all levels, from grassroots to the professional game. We strive to increase spectatorship and participation in the women's game, recognising its significance and potential.
Additionally, we are deeply committed to supporting our local community and fostering a culture of inclusivity and acceptance within our club.
Join us at Villa Bellas as we break down barriers, celebrate diversity, and pave the way for a more equitable and inclusive future in football. We welcome everyone, regardless of gender, and we value the power of allies.
Join us for free! You can expect regular updates through newsletters, exclusive opportunities, events, competitions and the opportunity to connect with other Villans.
Villa Bellas are proud partners of the Her Game Too campaign. Her Game Too are a group of female supporters who are passionate about football and working to eradicate sexism in the football industry. They want women and girls of all ages to feel confident and safe sharing their opinion about football both online and in real life without fear of sexist abuse.
The work we do at Villa Bellas is synonymous with Her Game Too with three of our committee members being HGT ambassadors for Villa men's and women's teams.
