The Hillsborough Charter was developed in response to the experiences of the families affected by the 1989 disaster.

97 football fans lost their lives due to overcrowding at Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield.

Local Resilience Forums, which plan for incidents and catastrophic emergencies, are made up of public service members.

It is believed that Surrey is the first LRF to have adopted the Hillsborough charter.

It will ensure that bereaved families are treated with respect, compassion, and dignity following a public tragedy.
