Suicide. - In 2015, 75% of all UK suicides were male.
Driven by our own collective experiences, the United Colours of Wicked Man have decided to host a day of fundraising in support of the Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM).
CALM is dedicated to preventing male suicide, the single biggest killer of men under the age of 45 in the UK. On average 12 men take their own life every day – CALM works to prevent male suicide by providing services for men who are down or in crisis, and by campaigning for culture change so men feel able to seek help.
We’ve organised a game of football at a fantastic, little, seated stadium in Rotherhithe, to which all are invited to come and show support! Tickets are free to attend and available via the Eventbrite link below, but we ask you to kindly make a donation via this page to help us reach our £2,500 target!
Remember, the event is for a great cause and won’t just be about football on the day; families are welcome, with food and drinks available, a raffle with some amazing prizes (and surprises), music and in true Wicked Man style…a bit of an after party at night (for the adults, obviously ; ).
Any donations (big or small!) to help this charity continue its fantastic work would be much appreciated!
