Complaints made by survivors in 2021 led to forfeiture this weekSheldon Review revealed Gradi’s failure over Barry Bennell
The disgraced football coach Dario Gradi is to be stripped of his MBE after complaints made by survivors of child sexual abuse.
The Offside Trust, a group formed by survivors of sexual abuse in sport, wrote to the Cabinet Office in 2021 asking that Gradi lose the MBE he received for services to football more than two decades previously. After a two-year process, an official forfeiture will be enacted this week.
