This Saturday we are linking up again with Derbyshire County Council and Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Trust to promote World Suicide Prevention Day

For our match against Glossop North End, we will have volunteers at the Raygar Stadium handing out resources to fans to make them aware of the services that are available if they are 'Feeling off their Game'.

They will also be offering practical advice on a confidential 'one to one' basis if need be.

This is the second year that the club has partnered with the healthcare authorities to promote awareness of the help and services that are available.

Men are four more times more likely than women to die as a result of suicide and a man dies through suicide every two hours.

There is no need to suffer in silence so we hope that fans will take on board advice on healthy living and also to keep a lookout for mates that might be suffering.

It's time to talk.
