Do you #GiveARuck?

We provide mental health first aid courses and workshops to help start those conversations around mental health as part of the #GiveARuck Pledge, to rugby clubs. For more details on how to access training for your rugby club message us or email [email protected]

With only a few weeks left to go before fixtures start in the 23/24 season, don't forget that preseason training doesn't have to always be about the physical. Online or face-to-face mental health training is available for your clubs. Want to know more email [email protected]

You don't have to be an ambassador, you don't have to become a mental health first aider, simply sharing our messages, listening to our podcasts or wearing our t-shirts shows you are part of the conversation. If you #GiveARuck, it could make all the difference.

Feel like you need support? There is always someone to talk to & professional advice is available. If you are struggling talk to: - Friends, family, teammates or coaches - Your GP - The Samaritans - Rethink - SHOUT - MIND mental health charity Remember you are not alone.
