Through football, the Scottish Mental Health and Wellbeing league supports the recovery of individuals with lived experience of mental ill-health and to tackle stigma associated with mental ill-health. They aim to empower players who have lived experience of experience of mental ill-health to make informed and positive choices about their participation in a team sporting activity and ensure clubs and players are signposted to appropriate advice and support as required at the right time to help their recovery.
