Pars join up with Samaritans ahead of Hearts game

DAFC Mental Health Ambassador Eddie Martin on the festive period ahead.

With the festive period nearly upon us, it is safe to say that this one will be not the same as ones we are used to. There is still a lot of uncertainty surrounding us with covid-19, and what the restrictions will be. This will have an affect on our fanbase and local community.

As the Mental Health Ambassador for the football club, I am pleased to say we are teaming up with the Samaritans to promote and raise awareness the service they provide. The Samaritans offer listening and support to people in the community.

Our football club played a major role in Fife’s 2020 suicide prevention campaign and continuing with the message you are not on your own and every life matters in Fife. On Friday 20th November, The Pars will play Hearts which will be shown live on BBC Scotland. For the warm up players of DAFC will be wearing Samaritans ‘T’ shirts promoting their service.
