Durham Women FC are delighted to unveil our 2025/26 third shirt – launched in partnership with County Durham-based charity If U Care Share.
The Blues have been long-standing supporters of the charity and have re-affirmed our commitment to backing their important message by donating the sponsorship of our away and third first-team shirts for the remainder of the Barclays Women’s Super League 2 campaign.
If U Care Share’s logo will now feature proudly on our red away kit and our striking new third shirt – which will be available to purchase at Sunday’s game against Newcastle United.
The new third kit, produced by our teamwear partner hummel, reflects the club’s values of unity, positivity and respect.
And given their pioneering work across the country, we see no better partner for this kit than If U Care Share.
With their roots in nearby Chester-le-Street, If U Care Share’s mission is to save lives, support communities and prevent suicide.
They provide a range of services fundamental to their three main aims of prevention, intervention and supporting those bereaved by suicide.
The team at If U Care Share reaches some of the most vulnerable people in society to support them at a time of need, and they also offer training and workshops based around themes of mental health and suicide prevention to professional
Both first-team and Professional Game Academy squads at Durham have benefitted from those workshops in recent years – as have a host of other clubs in both the male and female game.
Commenting on the partnership, Matthew Smith, Founder and Chief Operating Officer at If U Care Share said: “Although we work across the North East, there are a lot of people who don’t know who we are or what we do.
“Being able to work with Durham Women and share our message further is huge for us, it’s a massive honour and we’re hugely grateful.
“I always believe that everything that we do is going towards saving a life, and by promoting our organisation, Durham Women are contributing to that.”
Dawn Hepple of Durham Women added: “If U Care Share are a fantastic local charity with national outreach who we are proud to support.
“We have supported the charity for a number of years through backing their Inside Out campaign and also previously donating sponsorship of our Professional Game Academy kit.
“Their website contains a number of good resources and they provide a vital service, which we hope this partnership will help to highlight further.”
Supporters will be able to purchase their new third shirt, along with home and away shirts, from the club shop at Sunday’s game against Newcastle United.
Replica shirts are priced at £50 for adult sizes and £40 for child sizes.
