Ive done it 💪🙏 completed it i am now a mental health first aid trained,its been 2 grueling days but worth every minute of it 🫶🙏
This doesn't mean im able to give you a diagnosis or become your therapist but it gives me the tools to help any individuals in a crisis or struggling and help them through it and point them and signpost them to places that can help.
As ive said before its not just about the football here its about the indviduals and the community 🫶

Dont let the world cup be the reason you go back out.
World cup isn’t the problem… your choices are. ⚽️🏆
World cups, beer gardens, old habits—it will cross your mind. That’s the truth.
But here’s a bigger truth…
You didn’t fight this hard just to throw it away for a pint.
One moment of weakness can cost you everything you’ve built.
So when that voice kicks in—play the tape back.
You already know how that story ends.
Now flip it.
Instead of isolating…
Instead of slipping…
Get around people who get it. Move. Breathe. Compete. Connect.
💥 Connection is protection. Always. 💥

We have got 9 picks left on the sweepstake if anyone wants to add extra we go to a maximum off 4 so if you had 3 you can have another 1 or if you add 2 add another one lets get it filled up today 🙏🫶

Im going to run a world cup sweepstake ⚽️

£2.50 a pick maximum off 3 picks

Prize pot will be as followed

Winner £40
Runner up £30
3rd place £20

Which will leave £30 to go in the pot towards a session 💪⚽️

It wont be drawn till all 48 places are took up

The fairest way to do this and give everyone a chance is everyone thats in ill put your names into a hat, draw them out 1 by 1 and thats the order the teams will be then picked out off the hat.

This is just to add abit more fun to the world cup and our sessions,aswell as adding abit off money to the football pot aswell.
If you want in let me know and how many picks you want (maximum 3 picks) money can be sortered by bank transfer or cash
World Cup starts in 3 days Thursday 11th June

Yesterdays player off the session went to josh 🏅⚽️
Like ive said before even though we class it has player off the session I dont just look at what I see on that pitch that evening in football ability, i look at it from a wider angle overall.

Josh has been with us since session 1 right from the start and has not missed a single session,like all off us we none off us was the fittest when we startered but over the weeks to watch his fitness and football ability come on is amazing to see in the sessions he goes by the name off grealish.🤣

But on top off that he does alot off help outside off the sessions,lads that struggle to get to us who cant drive he will go that extra mile to help out with picking individuals up and dropping them off aswell as my self sometimes.

He play a big part in and around b&k recovery fun football which i am very thankful for 🙏💙

Also not forgetting when we 1st set up we was just supporting lads in recovery from addiction and he still come along week in week out but has you know we have opened it up wider to support individuals with Mental health struggles.

I attached a photo off his review a few weeks back because theres a powerful statement that stands out to me
"Even though im not in recovery it do not feel out of place at all and been welcomed with open arms and feel part of a family"

Well done josh 💙🏅⚽️🙏

Ps theres no photo with his medal has i forgot them 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤣 I had to give him a i owe you 🤣

Did you know June is Men’s Mental Health Month? a reminder that strength isn’t about bottling things up or pretending everything’s fine. It’s about having the courage to talk, to feel, & to ask for help when you need it.
Too many men are suffering in silence, thinking vulnerability makes them weak. It doesnt!! 💙
