Coalisland Fianna Mental health fund
Donation protected
The last two years we successfully raised over £2000 for mental health related issues for our club members. We hope to top that this year and beat that target. The funds are for our players/members and supporters from all Coalisland Fianna affiliated clubs and teams of any age. This is our way of coming together and chipping in to be there for each and every person in our club.
Read some words put together by some of our club members on the event:
“Well Folks, Carl McGrath here
As a coalisland fianna member I’ll always be indebted to the help the committee members, and especially the organisers of the over 30 v under 30 soccer game, for the opportunity they gave me to tackle my poor mental health. This was through helping me with the funds to get help. Funds that were raised in the lead up to the charity game that annually takes place before Christmas. This helped me massively through a year that may have been the toughest yet for some. I would encourage anyone that can spare for a donation to do so as it’ll help someone suffering in silence a great deal, every penny helps. If that happens to be you do not be afraid to ask for the help you needed. Poor mental health is rife nowadays and together as a club it can be tackled and minimised together.”
”Hi folks
My name is Stephen mc nally (mackers). The over 30s v under 30s is a very successful well run soccer match between a lot of friends for a very worthy cause in mental health. This is close to alot of people and a little bit about my struggle with mental health. 2 years ago I started having panic attacks, anxiety and depression. I told my close friends and family what had happened and I straight away went to counselling (thrive with Niall). This helped me massively in a positive way and im forever greatful to have had people to help me. Please donate to a brillant cause folks as you never know who it can affect.
Thanks macks”
