The board of the Leyton Orient Fans’ Trust (LOFT) wishes to express its support for HerO’s, the official female supporters’ group for Orient fans.

In particular, as an ally we support their efforts to raise awareness against a misogynistic line in a chant sung at matches. This is something we, and others, have long engaged with the club on tackling.

As part of this, we have updated our Code of Conduct which all members sign up to, to explicitly refer to misogyny as well as violence, racism and other discriminatory behaviour.

Membership for season 2026/27 has opened and remains at a minimum £1 on a ‘pay what you can afford’ basis – see our Join LOFT page for further details.
