World Mental Health Day flyer - Union FS

[Union FS]

 

This weekend’s game falls closest to World Mental Heath Day.

Don’t struggle alone.
There is help out there.

Please share.

The group had asked for access to the stadium to lay out on seats the flyers ahead of the match. 
This was sadly not granted due to ‘sustainability’ concerns.

Instead members of the group will be flyering local pubs pre match.

The lines will be gridlocked at full time.

[Wymsey]

What's the 'sustainability concern' here - the paper material used to make the flyers?

 

Fans didn't question the club when they produced the clappers for many games.

Yep. It was immediately pointed out to them that over the years the club have given out millions of clappers, which was of course completely ignored.

Jobsworths at the club ignoring a legitimate and important cause probably.

Another demand to make of the club at the next fan meeting then: if they still want to hand out clappers, put mental health resources on the the clappers for the fixture closest to World Mental Health day

[RYM]

“Sustainability” over mental health awareness is wild. That’s disgusting from the club. 

 

Those that have pushed you away have clearly never suffered, never sat looking at trains pass just wondering or struggled to get out of bed for days.

 

Keep fighting the good fight and thank you 🙏🏻

There’s a real good podcast doing the rounds at the moment about how clubs can foster good relationships with fans (and the monetary benefit) by approving of good causes, celebrating heritage and local community/history. 
 

At LCFC, there are people in positions who are just bad at their job. They’ve had careers completely unsuitable for a provincial football club. Their brains are focused on a corporate level type of customer

Separating the quite upsetting element of it being turned down on quite suspect reasoning, this is what I don’t get.

There is some good PR to be had here, certainly better than a doughnut run.

 

Let the lads in on their Friday night, film

a video, push the reach it would get, foster community spirit and so on and so on.

Mental illness is now one of the biggest killers in the world today. I'm happy to be at the ground early to hand out flyers pre match, if the club will even allow it. Message me if there is anything I can do to support this.

[Dan LCFC]

It's such a dead club isn't it. Just sad how little I feel for it anymore.

[goose2010]

Wow that's ridiculous from the club to reject that. 

 

like others have said, just print it on the clappers! 

 

I work for the worlds biggest packaging company and sustainability is something i work with daily - this volume of print wouldnt even make a mark on their sustainability report - they wouldnt even need to mention it as its not being supplied by them! 

 

To me chaps i think they are trying to run you out of the club - i would be interested to know if the Foxes Trust were the ones offering to do this they would get the same response.

Corporate goons running this football club who have no care or concern for their fans (or should I say customers.) Chance for some good PR after the last 2 years of horrid decision making and they turn it down. 

 

As a mental health sufferer, raising awareness and support groups is a great initiative so keep fighting the good fight. 

[Guest]

**** this club and the people who run it so hard. Making dodgy football and football-adjacent decisions is one thing but the absolute contempt they have for us is genuinely remarkable at this point. Showing support for mental health causes and one of their foremost fan groups at presumably little to no cost should be an absolute tap-in for them I would have thought and yet they seem totally committed to turning the relationship between them and their community into an adversarial one.

[StanSP]

Not a good look from the club. 

Also once again they've missed the fvcking point and would rather hide behind red tape as opposed to work with an organisation and still do good for the community. 

 

Instead of the options to come to a solution together, they've just outright said no. 

 

Once again, they show a distinct lack of empathy or any kind of effort of working together with an organisation that wants to do something positive for fans. 

[Daggers]

Fvck King Power.

 

Fvck Top.

 

Fvck this club.

[Out Foxed]

i remember the premier league refusing a request for i think Shelter or a homeless charity around Christmas a few years back

***** everywhere

[The_77]

Excellent work again, @Union FS , the only transparent entity around the club these days. 

[leicesterisme]

The same people that said no to the foodbank the first time we tried.

Who is it specifically? What's their job role? Understand if you don't want to say of course.

Can radio Leicester help with the awareness of what you are doing?

[Nolucklcfc]

Hopefully the rejection of this can reach news outlets
