In an interview feature, founder Drew Diamond spoke about the decision to include pronouns with the staff pages on the main website. “We want Her Football Hub to be a safe space. It’s why our staff page on the website has the teams’ pronouns on there, so everyone who visits the site will know we are aware of the relevance of things like that."
The feature also went on to elaborate about the importance of ethical investment "In the past we’ve refused investment and support from betting and gambling companies to avoid triggering anyone, it needs to remain as safe a space as possible [for the readership].”[17]
