London South United Older men’s Physical and mental well-being
The Pitch
Problem statement
We are from a sometimes tuff south london community and generally society writes off our community as one which doesn’t support each other and war with one another. This environment has led to many men in our community developing mental, physical health issues. London South United wants to support our members and community. We will do this by showcasing support, teamwork, collaboration and highlighting the issues and encouraging individuals to accept help. This wrap around support will be behind our football activities with our teams.
Solution
We will use the funding to enable the football team to run and also get official training for making our club have mental health first aiders, first aiders and get the club charter standard affiliation. We will use money on kits, training equipment and well-being activities.
Why are we best placed to deliver?
We are already an established part of our community and have a lot members and there immediate family and friends. We have been giving a lot of support already with limited resources. Our club have been running for years and every year it grows with more and more of the community drawn to us and joining our extended family. With your support we can reach even more individuals in need.
