AoC Sport teams up with the charity Mind

We are excited to announce we have teamed up with the charity Mind on a new project to raise awareness of the practical ways students and staff can support their own mental health and that of others, and highlight the importance that physical activity can have on your mental health.

Mind are here to make sure no one has to face a mental health problem alone. They provide advice and support to empower anyone experiencing a mental health problem. They campaign to improve services, raise awareness and promote understanding.

To celebrate the partnership, Mind’s logo is going to appear on all AoC Sport football, hockey and netball national team shirts for the 2022/23 season and regional team shirts at the 2023 National Championships. We will also be working together to improve the approach to mental health in college sports programmes through increasing knowledge, awareness and confidence of students and staff.

We are excited to be working with Mind, as it will only help to emphasise the need for all of us to look after our mental health, as well as our physical health.
