Local Men's Mental Health Group Receive Cheque

A local charity, supported by 106.9 SFM, has been awarded funds from The Asda Foundation through their Sittingbourne superstore.

Asda's Sittingbourne Community Champion, Claire Fosbeary, presented the cheque to the charity's CEO, Jason Firmanger and a number of volunteers at their recent Tuesday night meeting at Holy Trinity Church (next to Lidl).

The free weekly group meet every Tuesday at 7:30pm and is for men who want to make positive changes in their lives and combat Mental Health issues.

Jason told SFM News: "We want to extend a huge thank you to Claire Fosbeary and the team at Asda for their ongoing support and financial contributions to Mental Health Sittingbourne. The outpouring of community support for this much-needed cause has been truly heartening. With over 22 suicides prevented and more than 500 men that have sort help through our services, every donation goes a long way in making a difference.
