A huge thank you to Steph and Colin from @dthughes_group for spending time with The Big Trust and our young people today. It was brilliant to hear about the important work DT Hughes does across Liverpool, helping to connect communities that so many of us rely on everyday. Steph and Colin also gave a really encouraging insight into the current and future opportunities that may be available within the business, showing young people the many different pathways construction can offer.We were especially to hear about the @dthughesfoundation and the work it is doing to support mental health in the construction industry. Construction continues to have one of the highest rates of work-related suicide among UK industries, with estimates placing the risk around three times higher than the national average. This makes the foundation’s work - raising awareness, encouraging honest conversations and providing access to mental health support - so important. Providing this support takes real investment. If you know of any funding, sponsorship or donation opportunities that can help the foundation continue and grow its fantastic work, please get in touch! Thank you again, Steph and Colin for sharing your time, and experience and passion with us. We’re excited to see what opportunities may come next for young people across our region. by @dthughesfoundation

Football has an incredible way of bringing people together, but at the DT Hughes Foundation, we believe it’s what happens beyond the final whistle that matters most.These photographs capture more than a fantastic tournament at Everton FC’s Hill Dickinson Stadium. They capture conversations, connections and a community standing together to challenge the stigma surrounding mental health.Every smile, every handshake and every team that is involved, is helping create an environment where talking about mental health feels normal, not uncomfortable.This is exactly why we do what we do. We are committed to creating safe spaces, encouraging open conversations and reminding people that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.But we’re not finished yet…⚽ The tournament continues this week with the Semi-Finals at Burscough FC, kicking off at 7:00pm on Thursday and Friday evening. We’d love to see as many people there as possible to support the teams and continue the conversations that matter.🏆 Then join us for Finals Day and our Family Fun Day on Sunday 19th July at Maghull FC. Expect fantastic football, family entertainment, great food, activities for all ages and another opportunity to come together as a community to show that no one has to face life’s challenges alone.A huge thank you to everyone who has supported the tournament so far, our volunteers, sponsors, players, supporters and the incredible photographers who have captured these special moments.Together, we’re proving that football is about so much more than the result. It’s about people, connection and creating a future where talking about mental health is simply part of everyday life.Because every conversation could save a life.#DTHughesFoundation #MentalFitness #EndTheStigma #ItsOkayToTalk SuicidePrevention FootballForChange Community TogetherWestand#embraceyourworth by @dthughesfoundation
