Mental health charity If U Care Share has launched its Children’s Inside Out campaign and Durham Women are showing their support!
The ‘Inside Out’ campaign encourages people to wear their clothes inside out for the day – a symbol to get their feelings out in the open and start conversations which will help save lives.
Players from our pathway teams have been wearing their tops ‘Inside Out’ at training across the week.
Suicide remains one of the biggest killers of young men across the UK, with six people aged between 40 and 60 dying by suicide every week in the North East alone.
If U Care Share, a mental health and suicide prevention charity based in Chester-le-Street, has designed an ‘Inside Out’ t-shirt which is available to buy and will be worn by players from the Premier League, Championship, League One, League Two, WSL and numerous non-league teams throughout September.
The North East still has the highest rate of suicide among men under the age of 50. Six men every week take their own lives. It is estimated that this has a direct impact on 182 people, including members of that person’s family, friends, work colleagues, responders and health professionals, etc. In total it means at least.
People are affected by suicide in the region every week. To find out more about how you can support, visit ifucareshare.co.uk
