We, the proud employees of Steel City Interactive (SCI), are lacing up our running shoes this September to tackle the Sheffield 10K in support of MentalMate - a boxing-focused mental health charity that's making a real difference in our community.

Why MentalMate?

Our Challenge

This September, our team will be pushing ourselves to complete the Sheffield 10K. While we might be more comfortable developing boxing games than actually running, we're committed to going the distance for this important cause!

Your Support Matters

Every pound you donate helps MentalMate continue their vital work. Your generosity will directly contribute to providing boxing training, mental health resources, and support services to those who need it most.

Join us in our fight for better mental health. Together, we can help land a knockout blow against mental health stigma!

Thank you for your support!

About Mentalmate

Everyone should have someone to talk to. It sounds so simple, yet so many people don’t have that, which is where Mentalmate comes in! We are building a group of mental mates through boxing down at the Mentalmate Boxing Gym in the Neepsend area of Sheffield 6 days per week . We have found that it is much easier to talk and discuss your feelings whilst exercising, if attendees do not wish to talk then that’s fine but it’s nice to know that you are surrounded by people who are all there for the same reason.

We started up Mentalmate following our founders battles with their own mental health problems , one of the main coping mechanisms for him was boxing. Boxing allowed him to clear his head and relieve some stress and anxiety whilst also building up my physical fitness. In January 2020 we decided to start Mentalmate as we wondered how many other people felt the same as us. How many other people would enjoy getting together and doing some boxing and talking?
