Title: Mental Health & Football crowdfunder page
Post by: Scooter on June 24, 2018, 11:31:09 pm
Evening all

Some of you may be aware that I my PhD research is focused on professional football and mental health. In November 2016 I delivered a presentation to the DRFC first team squad about mental health in football and the feedback was really positive. I have since, and am currently interviewing first team footballers from across the EFL and mental health issues are a hugely underreported factor. There are more players going public with their issues which is great.
I'm looking to start a business to offer education and training to football clubs at all levels about mental health and also to offer 1:1 individual support to players if and when necessary.

I have set up a just giving page to help get my business going. If any of you would like to donate to help make a positive difference it would be greatly appreciated
