The panel included representation from the Premier League, Football Association, EFL, League Managers Association, Professional Footballers’ Association, PGMOL, Kick It Out, FARE, BCOMS and Black community leaders.
Individuals are on the list for their contributions in one of eight areas, with Richarlison recognised for his off the pitch work, André in the practitioner category and Tara for her services to community and grassroots programmes.
Richarlison has spoken out on various social issues and given back to communities in Brazil through support for good causes assisting families, cancer patients and others.
André joined the Foundation in 2022 and leads its Huddle Project and Spurred 2 Coach programmes, the former providing increased access to free sporting activity for local youngsters and the latter giving young adults without qualifications the opportunity to become a football coach.
