CLUB WELLBEING TEAM – MISSION STATEMENT

The Club Wellbeing Team is an initiative that aims to provide support for those who are experiencing mental health issues and need a confidential ear to listen and direct to appropriate services. The team has been specifically trained to identify signs and symptoms that someone may be struggling and ready to have conversations as a way of destigmatising mental health issues. The team understands the important role the club can play in that immediate low-level support and have been trained to support individuals through 3 levels on intervention. These consist of:

Supporting the individual through the CWT
Connecting the person with someone responsible and caring within their own family/friendship group outside the club
Referring to a health specialist in the wider community

The Club Wellbeing Team consists of a range of people across the club who are available to everyone in the club and to watch over, build relationships, be approachable and help facilitate a healthy and supportive community. These people are not trained counsellors but want to support the club in creating that environment of being a safe space of care and connection.

The Club Wellbeing Team (CWT) would like to invite any of our club members to make contact with us, if the need arises. As we have just finished the 2022 Season, many of you may not catch up with your teams until preseason training or even next year. This is why we need to make sure you have support, in a safe and confidential space, with the CWT. Don't hesitate to contact us clubwellbeing@morningtonfnc.com.au

Good luck and stay safe!
