The Changing Room has one goal – to promote men’s mental health and wellbeing through the power of the beautiful game.
Falkirk Foundation is delighted to bring The Changing Room to Falkirk Stadium as we look forward to kicking-off the innovative 12 week course that invites men to step down from the stands, into the heart of their club, to take action for their mental health.
The project targets men in their middle years (aged 30-64) and works to help them better self-manage their own mental health and support one another, as part of a team.
These sessions are a chance to get away from the everyday stresses we deal with and chat about football and mental health at the home of the club. We all love a blether about the football, whether it’s pre-match tactics, the team selection, or post-match analysis with your pals.
Men also need to get anything that’s bothering them off their chests, The Changing Room gives them that opportunity.
The Changing Room is a SAMH (Scottish Association for Mental Health) project that works in partnership with SPFL Trust and football club charities and trusts across Scotland. It is funded by the global men’s health charity, Movember.
There are 12 spaces available for the first group of men to participate; this exciting course uses football and a variety of activities each week to help men tackle their mental health.
