Story
The Chris Mitchell Foundation was established by Chris’ family and his girlfriend, Louise Rooney. They wanted to highlight the need of mental health and wellbeing awareness within Scottish professional football and give it a national platform.
The services and support of the Chris Mitchell Foundation will be available to players, ex-players and staff connected to professional Scottish football clubs; including those clubs within the Scottish Professional Football League, the Scottish Highland League, the Scottish Lowland League, the Scottish Women’s Premier League and associated youth academies.
The Foundation will work closely with organisations within the Scottish football industry and specialised organisations to develop its services to ensure they are tailored to meet the relevant individuals’ needs.
The Chris Mitchell Foundation began in May 2017 and the current board of trustees includes Philip Mitchell, Laura Mitchell and Louise Rooney. Further trustees will be sought from within the Scottish football industry, as well as the private and public sector, dependant on relevant skills and experience.
This strategic plan sets out our key objectives over the next three years. It outlines how we will look to achieve our vision and mission and will allow us to form partnerships with other organisations who specialise in this area.
Our Vision
Our vision is to dispel the stigma associated with mental health in Scottish professional football and for it to be integrated into physical health and fitness training programmes.
Our Mission
The Chris Mitchell Foundation will bring to the forefront the need for the awareness of mental health and wellbeing within the Scottish professional football industry, by sharing knowledge and skills and improve learning, forging cohesive and sustainable partnerships, connecting and supporting service users and campaigning to raise awareness on a national scale.
