We're back with the #ProperFooty Podcast and Dr Anthony Gill joins us this week. Tony chats about the huge benefits that football, sports and general exercise can help improve your mental health.

Following a competition at Christmas, Settle United AFC who are all about #ProperFooty, raised £1,500 for MIND the mental health support charity.

A really insightful podcast that helps to overcome the stigma with mental health. Remember, if you ever need to talk, never be afraid to open up. It is okay to not be okay and opening up about a problem with your mental health is the first step to finding ways to manage it or overcome it.

15.9million people seek help from MIND alone each year, it is what they are there for.

SUAFC's head of marketing, James Hamer, who leads with this podcast said: “Mental health is such an important topic and even more so for young men, who are the biggest group of people to commit suicide. We’re over the moon to have raised so much money for MIND and to have helped get rid of some of the stigma of talking about not being okay at the same time.

“The support we had from the business community in the area to help us compile the prizes has been incredible. We are lucky that businesses support the club throughout the year and it’s great that we’ve been able to convert some of that support into much-needed funds for charity too.

“We have lots of exciting plans to grow a successful football club in our community and it’s a great time to be a part of a club that has over 50 men signed on to play with us.”

Settle United strives to be a positive part of the community and has also donated club merchandise to Settle Swimming Pool to help them continue to fund this vital community facility in the town.
