In May 2023, we sadly lost our very own Amanda ‘Mandy’ Freeman. A supporter of Bury for many years, she was always keen to support the club in as many ways as she could.


Following her passing, her friends and the wider club volunteers came together to sponsor the number six home and away shirts in her name.


Volunteer Co-ordinator, Sam Harman said:
Fans can purchase a ticket for £5, with the aim to raise the £160 required to be able to sponsor the shirt.

A maximum of 100 tickets are available to purchase, with additional funds going to a charity close to Mandy’s heart – Bleakholt Animal Sanctuary. Last season, we raised £300 for the Ramsbottom based charity on-top of the funds raised for the shirt.


The winner of the raffle will receive the number six shirts at the end of the season, signed by all players.

We will confirm the date of the raffle in due course, it’s expected to take place at an early home game of the season.

Bury Football Club has been a central point for the local community for 140 years. After fighting through our own battles as a club, we have now been able to further invest in the wellness of our players, staff, supporters and the wider community. From our ever-growing fan-base to our popular recreational and youth teams, Bury FC is about the people and for the people and we now have a dedicated team of Mental Health First Aiders who are here to help signpost you to the support you may need.




Since 2024, we have been working with The Football Mental Health Alliance and we have formed a small committee made up of our players from our women’s and men’s recreational teams and fans. Leading this initiative is Tania Jackson, our club’s Safeguarding and Welfare Officer, she is joined by Mark Lomas, Jess Reed, Ben Travis, Samantha Radcliffe and Aaron Wilkinson. Together, they form the core of our Mental Health First Aiders, dedicated to offering assistance and support.

This investment reflects our commitment to fostering an environment where mental health concerns are met with empathy and prompt support, aiming to combat stigma and raise awareness of available resources. It exemplifies Bury Football Club’s commitment to ensuring everyone in our community has access to a supportive network.

By investing in this training, we prioritise individual well-being and align with broader initiatives promoting Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. We believe in nurturing an environment where open conversations about mental health are encouraged and practical support is readily accessible. They are not therapists or psychiatrists, but they have undergone training so they can give you initial support and most importantly signpost you to the appropriate support services if required.

We encourage anyone in need to reach out to a member of our Mental Health First Aider team without hesitation. For assistance or enquiries about available platforms, please email mhfa@buryfc.co.uk to connect with one of our designated Mental Health First Aiders, who will guide you appropriately.

Together, let’s continue to cultivate a community where mental health is not only acknowledged but also given the utmost priority, support and understanding.

Bury FC is proud to announce a dedicated Month of Action in support of Mind the national mental health charity, with a series of fundraising matches and community events aimed at promoting mental wellbeing and reducing the stigma around mental health issues.
Kick-off at the Annual Fun Day – Saturday 21st June
The campaign begins during our much-loved Annual Fun Day on Saturday, 21st June, with two exciting charity matches:


Bury FC Supporters Team vs Holly’s Hearts
Bury FC Men’s Recreational & Vets vs MAN v FAT FC (Bury)


All proceeds from these matches will go directly to support the work of Mind at a local level, helping them provide essential services and support to those in our community who need it most.
Pre-Season Fixtures Dedicated to Mind – 12th & 13th July
As part of our pre-season window, we’ll be turning the spotlight on mental health again over the weekend of Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th July:


Saturday: Bury FC Men vs Chester FC
Sunday: Bury FC Women vs Chester FC Women (FSA Community-Owned Women’s Cup)


At both matches, representatives from Mind will be present and bucket collecting throughout the day. We encourage all fans to give generously and support the vital work this charity does.
Elle Cody, Fundraising & Marketing Manager at Rochdale Mind, said:
In Association with the FSA #YouAreEnough Campaign
These events are part of the newly founded #YouAreEnough initiative – a collaborative project between the Football Supporters’ Association (FSA) and Mind, inspired by the fantastic work being done at Dunstable Town FC, another proud fan-owned club. The campaign focuses on promoting positive mental health, creating open conversations and building support networks within football communities.
Head of Operations, Casey Lynchey, said:
Football Supporters’ Association representative for the campaign, Andrew Madaras, added:
