People often ask me why did you set this up sure you're own head isn't in a good place you're own mental health is away with the fairies, well I set this club up with the aim of helping as many people as I can should ot be through football, having a laugh in the group chat, doing charity matches to raise funds to help local people out with stuff and many many more things. But today just hit me different a man came to one of my coaches and player and didnt have anything to his name now this man was a full working family man and has just fell into deep depression and no money, he didnt even have money for electric or gas never mind the essentials to feed himself. Now that is heart hitting and brings it home we have all been in the dark dark.place off no money no friends embarrassed to ask for help cause we think so called friends and family would just talk about us or laugh at us.
I don't care who you are or what you do, I honestly dont care if you're a male or female young or old our football team is always welcoming and we will never turn a person away, we have brilliant coaches that listen and try their hardest to help in anyway they can, I myself suffer and im not scared to admit it I never will.
Please if anyone out there is struggling please remember their is always someone you can talk to should it be one off us a family member a friend anyone please please dont suffer in silence folks 🙏

Ps this isn't a recruitment speech this is from the head and heart.
ITS OK TO TALK 👄

Did you know that if you text HOME to 741741 at a time when you may be feeling depressed or suicidal, a crisis worker will text you back immediately and will continue to text with you? Many people, especially younger ones, don't like talking over the phone and would feel more comfortable texting. This is a free service for anyone - if you would like to join me in raising awareness, please copy and paste this.
