HARRIERS Foundation’s new men’s mental health hub, The Dug Out will launch on 1st December 2025.
Delivered in partnership with Worcestershire FA, and supported by mental health professionals, The Dug Out aims to provide real, meaningful help for those who need it the most.
The first hub will take place on Monday 1st December 2025 from 6:30pm-8:30pm. Sessions will consist of one hour of football, followed by one hour of chat at the Club’s Centre of Sporting Excellence (COSE).
The Hubs will provide a safe space where men can talk, connect and find support when life feels heavy. Too many men continue to suffer in silence, with suicide remaining the biggest killer of men under 50, and The Dug Out is here to change that.
Sessions are provided free of charge, and will take place every Monday at COSE (Zortech Avenue, Kidderminster, DY11 7DY).
Book your place for our first FREE Hub, taking place on Monday 1st December via our online form.
Harriers Foundation are actively seeking sponsors to help run The Dug Out throughout the remainder of the season, please email adam.whitley@harriersfoundation.co.uk for further details.
