Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am running in support of the C9 foundation, a local Mens mental health charity.
77% of men suffer some form of stress, anxiety and depression however to this day 40% will still not talk about their mental health.
This leads to the tragic suicide statistics we still see to this day of husbands, brothers and sons.
If 2020 has taught us anything it is that we really have to look after our own mental wellbeing and that of others around us. Awareness and support cost nothing, and a small donation from you can help keep this small local charity afloat for the local boys who need it most.
The C9 Foundation are a registered Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO).
Using sports as a means to educate and raise awareness of Mental Health, the charity also use this to help aid recovery for those suffering. The are more than just a football team, they encouraging their members to share their personal experiences *speak out* and offer support to each other in a daily basis.
C9 are self funded and rely on fundraisers such as myself and the kindness of you good people to keep continuing their excellent work.
Please spare a few pounds if you can for this great cause, I know personally the good this football team charity does for the local guys, my husband included.
Lets help remove the stigma of mental health <3
