On 2025 World Mental Health Day, Bolton Wanderers - alongside Bolton Wanderers in the Community - are proud to support the campaign.
Marked annually on the 10th October, with this year's theme being 'access to services - mental health in catastrophes and emergencies'. The theme highlights the importance of people being able to protect their mental health in times of global instability.
Bolton Wanderers prides itself on being a family club, who look after their own. By carrying the One Club, One Community, One Town message, we can ensure our club is one that is for all.
At Bolton Wanderers in the Community - the Football Club's charity arm - they run and work with a number of mental health platforms in helping to promote positive mental health.
For the club's recent home fixture against Peterborough United, BWitC joined arms with Bolton at Home for their 'Walk of Hope', helping to raise awareness of men's mental health and suicide prevention. Starting from Bolton Town Hall and finishing at the Toughsheet Community Stadium pre-kick-off, the Bolton Manbassadors were joined by members of BWitC in supporting the campaign.

To mark World Mental Health Day, Wanderers hosted a Mental Health Workshop for all staff within the Football Club - including BWitC and Bolton Stadium Hotel - in sharing ways to look after your own well-being and tools to take away from the session.
It was a session that was well attended this week, and offered vital tips and suggestions for people to best equip themselves in an ever-changing world.
