Business Awareness Wall
Show the football world this issue is being noticed.
The 12,000 Pixel Website is a public awareness wall for businesses, clubs and community supporters who want to stand with the Colour Blindness in Football mission.
Every visible supporter helps the message travel further: colour blindness in football is real, easy to miss, and worth taking seriously.
Paid sponsorship is separate and optional. The awareness wall gives people a simple way to support the message, while the free-books mission helps fund practical resources for players, parents, coaches and clubs.
Businesses can stand with the mission through the 12,000 Pixel Website. Paid sponsorship is a separate option for anyone who wants to help fund free books.

View the 12,000 Pixel Website
The 12,000 Pixel Website is an awareness wall. Each reviewed supporter helps show that colour blindness in football is being noticed by real people and organisations.
The numbers football cannot ignore
These figures show why this mission matters. Colour blindness is not a tiny issue. It is easy to miss, and football uses colour everywhere.
💡 Key takeaway: Despite these high numbers, roughly 80% of these children may remain undiagnosed throughout their primary school years. That means many players may be struggling before anyone knows to check colour vision.
These are awareness estimates, not a diagnosis. A standard eyesight check and a colour vision test are not always the same thing, so parents may need to ask specifically about colour vision testing.
Awareness Supporter
The 12,000 Pixel Website is a public wall of awareness supporters.
A business, club or community supporter can appear on the Pixel Website to show they recognise the issue and support better awareness for colour-blind players.
👀
Awareness
A business can show it recognises that colour blindness in football deserves attention.
🤝
Public support
When supporters appear publicly, more parents, coaches and clubs can see that the issue is being taken seriously.
📚
Optional next step
Supporters who want to go further can also help fund free books and wider awareness resources.
Submissions should be reviewed before any business name, logo or link is displayed publicly.
The free-books sponsor mission
For supporters who want to go further, these are the funding goals that help provide free books and awareness resources.

Estimated books funded from sponsor money at £15 average per book.

0 / 12,000
Why these numbers matter
The goals are not random. They turn the statistics into a public mission supporters can understand.
12,000
Represents the 1 in 12
The 12,000 free books goal represents the commonly used estimate that around 1 in 12 males have colour vision deficiency. It also connects to the hidden Number 12 player — the player on the pitch who may be struggling without anyone knowing.
£200,000
Represents the 1 in 200
The £200,000 funding goal carries the 1 in 200 girls statistic. Colour blindness is more common in boys, but girls can be colour blind too. When a girl is affected, the barrier is not smaller. She deserves the same visibility, support and dignity.
Why this awareness matters
This is not just a book campaign. It is an awareness mission for a hidden football problem.
👀
Colour blindness can be missed
Many children do not know they see differently. A player can pass a normal eyesight chart and still have a colour vision issue if colour vision is not specifically tested.
⚽
Football uses colour everywhere
Kits, bibs, cones, balls, lines, goalkeeper shirts, referee shirts, tactical boards, apps and coaching instructions all rely on colour.
🧠
It can create mental load
A colour-blind player may spend energy checking colours all game. That can reduce focus, slow decisions, create doubt and waste energy.

Questions supporters may ask
Clear answers help people understand the mission.
What is the 12,000 Pixel Website?
It is a public awareness wall for businesses, clubs and community supporters who want to stand with the Colour Blindness in Football mission.
Can businesses support the awareness wall?
Yes. Businesses can appear on the 12,000 Pixel Website to show public awareness of the project. Paid sponsorship is separate and optional.
Why is the goal 12,000 books?
The number 12 represents the commonly used estimate that around 1 in 12 males have colour vision deficiency. It also connects to the hidden Number 12 player theme in the mission.
Why is the funding goal £200,000?
At an average book cost of £15, 12,000 books equals £180,000. The £200,000 goal gives extra room for delivery, payment fees, awareness marketing, resources, website costs and unexpected costs. It also carries the 1 in 200 girls statistic, reminding people that girls can be colour blind too.

Is this only for boys?
No. Colour blindness is more common in boys, but girls can be colour blind too. When a girl is affected, the football barrier is just as real and deserves the same support, dignity and visibility.
What is the practical message?
Do not rely on colour alone when something important must be understood quickly. Football needs clearer cues, better awareness and practical support for players who see colour differently.
Stand with the mission. Help the hidden player become visible.
Join the awareness wall, support free books if you want to go further, and help players, parents, coaches, clubs and academies understand colour blindness in football before another player is misjudged for a picture they could not clearly see.
