Wincanton Town Football Club played host for the latest leg of the Toolstation Western League partnership with Mind in Somerset. Western League Podcast presenter, Ian Nockolds, was joined at The Wincanton Sports Ground by Alison Baker, Corporate Partnership Co-ordinator at Mind in Somerset.
Alison and Ian met with fans and Club officials to discuss the League’s campaign to promote positive mental wellbeing. Alison Baker said:
“We are so pleased to continue our partnership with the Toolstation Western League. The generosity of club supporters at matches has been amazing – but it has been about more than fundraising. This partnership helps to raise awareness around the importance of looking after your mental wellbeing. Mind in Somerset would like to say a huge thank you to all the clubs for making this happen.”
The Western League presented changing room posters to Wincanton Chairman, Terry Wise, promoting the Somerset Mindline, Somerset’s 24-hour mental health helpline. Ian and Alison also conducted a bucket collection with supporters, which raised just under £50.
