I have devised a sponsors walk between 18 ‘local’ rugby clubs. These 18 clubs represent the 18 people who feel they have no other option but to take their life through suicide every day. I am looking to raise awareness of mental health in all sports , raise the profile of the support that Mindset Sport CIC can offer clubs and raise money towards my target of £40k which will allow me to move the The Community Kit Bag from my shed into a premises and employ someone part time to support the mailing out of free sports kit and equipment to people that need it.
So a guy with a dodgy knee and bad back is going to walk about 150 miles to raise money and awareness around mental health and prevent poverty being a barrier to sport. In order that I can keep as much money going to The Community Kit Bag project I am looking for corporate sponsors for things like kit donation , food, drink, clothing and shelter or accommodation. Along with raising money I am hoping each club I visit will receive a free sports kit to donate to someone in need at their club or town. If you are a company who could help out with any of this please contact me. To find out how you can help in other ways please see below for a list of needs on the walk and check out the PDF to see where the money will be going
Thanks
