Manchester City - City in the Community

In Manchester, the long-term impact of the Coronavirus crisis on young people’s mental health has been highlighted as a major concern amongst parents and carers. Physical activity, including football, can play an important role in improving the mental health and well-being of young people.
This new project, part of Cityzens Giving for Recovery, will support young people by creating dedicated mental health resources to reach new and existing City in the Community participants. The project will embed mental health awareness and understanding across all City in the Community projects targeting thousands of 14-25 year olds, with project staff trained to have the knowledge they need to identify and support participants.
