Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it.
To be part of the M.A.T.E (Men And Their Emotions) charity football match at Swindon Town FC - Celebrities vs Ex-Pros - was something truly special - Andrew Nuttall even bagged a goal!
In a world, and especially an industry, that’s still so heavily male-dominated, we have to keep pushing the conversation forward. Too many men are suffering in silence. Too many feel like they can’t speak up. And tragically, we are still losing far too many men to su***de every single day.
That has to change.
Events like this, driven by organisations like M.A.T.E (Men and Their Emotions), are more than just a game. They’re a statement. A reminder that it’s okay to talk. That vulnerability is not weakness. That checking in on your mates can save a life.
Nearly £70,000 raised on Sunday… let that sink in. That money will go a long, long way. It will support, protect, and quite literally save lives.
So proud to have played a small part in something so meaningful.
Time to talk. Always. 💙
