MAN v SAD
24 Hour Foot Fest
Countdown to Kick Off

Raising Money for Men's Mental Health
The lads from MAN v FAT St Helens are lacing up their boots for something truly special – a 24-hour indoor football match to raise funds and awareness for Sean’s Place, a brilliant men’s mental health charity making a real difference in our community.
We’ll be playing non-stop through the day and night – tired legs, sore feet, and plenty of team spirit! It's all in support of a cause close to our hearts. Men's mental health often goes unspoken, but it shouldn't.
This isn’t just a football match – it’s a show of solidarity, a challenge of endurance, and a reminder that none of us are alone.
We’d love your support
whether that’s cheering us on from the sidelines, sharing our story, or helping to spread the word. Every little bit makes a difference.
