What is offload?
Offload helps men tackle issues such as depression and anxiety and to develop coping strategies to successfully manage the crises we all face in everyday life.
Staged over 6 weekly ‘fixtures’, Offload is presented by former Rugby League players and officials who share their experiences of dealing with pressure, health problems and challenging situations.
It is open to all men aged 16 and over. Men meet and talk with current and former professional players to learn techniques they use to manage their own mental and physical fitness.
Over the course of the 6-week ‘season of fixtures’, men build their own mental fitness, whilst having fun, in a relaxed atmosphere and develop coping strategies to challenge difficult situations and learn how to recognise when people close to them may need their support.
You don’t need to be a Rugby League fan – or even a sports fan! – to take part and benefit from Offload. Even though our presenters are mainly retired or current Rugby League players, they share stories from their personal lives as well as sporting careers to bring real experiences to important topics. They give men genuine real-life examples that they can relate to and learn from.
Chris Chamberlain, Project and Finance Manager at Saints Foundation, said: “After extensive consultation and understanding the local needs from across St Helens, it became evident that Offload would be great to support people within St Helens and especially local businesses.
“Saints Foundation has been working hard behind the scenes to bring Offload to local businesses. This is an extremely positive project which has worked well in other local areas.”
