Big World Mental Health Day Thanks

... to all Club members, family, friends, & supporters who rallied around our walk over Cannock Chase for WMHD & allowed us to boost our funds to the tune of £405.50p.

In all honesty, it was more important to members the Club actually did something to mark WMHD 2016; 'chancing our arm' in seeking sponsorship was very much a last minute idea, & more about providing structure as we moved toward the walk.  So it was with much pleasant surprise we realised we had received very significant support for our Badminton Club & 'friendship activities'.  In an area being slowly but surely deprived of more formal social support opportunities small, local groups like ours are critical in ensuring folk with mental health concerns can be included, supported, befriended.



Again, a massive Thank You to everyone who pulled on walking boots or stuck their hands in their pockets... didn't we do well?  It was a lovely walk as well...
