Capture Visual Media Management, the leading provider of innovative visual media management solutions, is excited to announce its partnership with Lewes Football Club, delivering cutting-edge Digital Asset Management (DAM) platform to enhance the club’s media management capabilities.

About Lewes FC

Lewes Football Club, based in Lewes, East Sussex, is a progressive and community-oriented football club that has gained widespread recognition for its pioneering efforts towards equity in football.

One of Lewes FC’s key initiatives is their groundbreaking commitment to equal pay for their men’s and women’s teams. In 2017, they became the first club in the world to pay their women’s team the same wages as their male counterparts. This groundbreaking move received international acclaim and set a new standard for gender equality within the sport.

In addition to their commitment to equal pay, Lewes FC actively promotes inclusivity and diversity throughout their organisation. They have taken significant steps to challenge gender stereotypes and promote opportunities for women in football. This includes providing equal training facilities, resources, and support for both their men’s and women’s teams.

Lewes FC also strives to create an inclusive match-day experience for all fans. They have implemented initiatives such as “Football for All,” which focuses on promoting accessibility and ensuring that people of all backgrounds, abilities, and ages can enjoy football in a safe and welcoming environment. The club actively engages with its local community and encourages participation from underrepresented groups.

Furthermore, Lewes FC has been vocal in advocating for wider changes within the football industry to address systemic inequalities. They have collaborated with organisations and campaigns that aim to tackle discrimination, increase diversity, and promote social justice in football.

Lewes FC’s work towards equity in football has not only gained recognition within the sport but has also inspired other clubs and organisations to follow suit. They continue to be a shining example of how football can lead the way in breaking down barriers and fostering a more inclusive and equitable sporting landscape.

Jack Towers, Communications Manager for Lewes FC commented,

“We are absolutely thrilled to be working with Capture ahead of our new season for both our men’s and women’s teams.

At Lewes we always want to find ways of taking ourselves to the next level off the pitch and what Capture provide will help us make a significant leap in both our social media coverage and media management.”
