Sport Cares provides a complete, evidence-based support system for athletes across all sports. Built on over a decade of elite athlete welfare practice, we deliver trusted, confidential, and comprehensive guidance that helps athletes thrive in every stage of their career and beyond.
Delivered by current and former elite athletes, discover how they have navigated life's ups and downs and the tools they have acquired that can help your colleagues perform at their highest level too. With mental health estimated to cost the UK £300 billion every year, it’s time to join the thousands of companies across the nation taking back control by building a more resilient workforce.
Our evidence-based programme Offload is an innovative mental fitness programme designed to equip your workforce with the tools and techniques needed to become and stay mentally fit and well in all aspects of their lives.

In the Community
As well as delivering our Offload programme to adults in communities, our youth mental fitness programme is available to the youth in our communities. Grown by Movember and powered by Sport Cares, our Ahead of the Game was designed to target young athletes aged 12-18, emphasising early intervention in mental health, directly addressing anxiety, depression and teaching ways to support struggling peers.
It's about changing the mental health of a generation.
Following a successful collaboration with Movember for the 2021 Rugby League World Cup, we became the UK implementation partner for Ahead of the Game, now delivering the project nationwide. We are working towards a community that not only normalises vulnerability but also has a support network in place. Working with club foundations from rugby league and football, our rigorous training ensures high standards in each club's facilitators. Since September 2020, we've reached over 20,000 young people aged 12 to 18, with numbers steadily increasing. We're proud of our progress but aim to reach even wider audiences.
