LFC offers support to fans dealing with distressing UCL final events

The club is committed to providing financial support to those organizations that are already in high demand, and encourages fans to seek support if they believe they need it right now.

The scenes witnessed at and around the Stade de France, before and after the start, on Saturday night will linger in the memory for all the wrong reasons.

Liverpool Football Club wants fans to know that expert help is available.

Working with the LFC Foundation, which collaborates with professional mental health services on a daily basis, the club has compiled a list of organizations that fans can turn to right now.

A landing page has also been created on the LFC Foundation website, which points out fans seeking specialist help from partner organizations.

The club has also officially called for a formal and transparent investigation into the problems facing fans in Paris.

LFC also asks fans who attended the party to fill out a feedback form to support any research on the operational management of the event.

The form, which must be completed by Sunday, June 5, can be accessed online here.
