🔴 Calum's Story Supporting Men's mental health, The Changing Room returns this Autumn in partnership with @SAMHtweets. Stay tuned for more information coming soon!







Kyle Hewitt, 37, from Dyce attended Changing Room Extra Time at @AberdeenFC. He says: "I grew up aware of mental health and its potential impacts on people and those around them because of my own experience. "But sometimes I didn’t feel like I had the ability to face the world. I had low moments as a parent and a husband, I wasn’t always nice to be around, and I could be hyper-critical of myself. “Then I embarked on a journey through Extra Time with like-minded men and amazing facilitators from @SAMHtweets. "I realised I had been deflecting, avoiding and bottling things up. I was able to give myself credit for what I was doing. "I also became more resilient, and better at creating positive habits and finding ways to change my outlook and mind-set. I have thrived as a result.” Kyle is pictured with Cabinet Secretary Neil Gray here at Pittodrie.

Breaking news! We're at @AberdeenFC today as @scotgovhealth announces an additional £100,000 funding to support delivery of The Changing Room Extra Time. The programme is delivered by @SAMHtweets in partnership with the SPFL Trust and associated community trusts @AFCCT, @RFC_Charity, @bighearts and @HibsinCommunity. Thanks to Cabinet Secretary @neilcgray for joining us at Pittodrie.
