Mental Health Training Initiative

Date posted 10-01-2023

On Saturday, Powerday held the first ever dedicated mental health training for London Boxing clubs. This initiative was introduced as part of their Sam’s Listening campaign, launched in 2021, as a preventative approach offering real time training to identify signs and remove the stigma of mental health within the sport.

It was great to see 11 volunteers from 9 boxing clubs participate in the training.

MadiganGill were delighted to fund the training session taken by Elite Force Safety and love partnering with our supply chain partners who share our passion on these important topics and recognise the benefit of collaborating for maximum impact.

Tony Ball, Managing Director at MadiganGill Logistics said: “With so little awareness surrounding mental health, it can be so very hard for people to acknowledge they even have a problem. In construction two workers take their own life every single day. We are so pleased to be working with Powerday on this and supporting Sam’s Listening and their Mental Health First Aid Course initiative”.
