Local resident Katie Wilson is organising a men's mental health pool competition in Hitchin on 26th May at 7pm, and a growing number of businesses have already stepped forward to support the event.

The competition aims to bring men together in a relaxed, social setting, encouraging conversation, connection, and community support. Entry is £10, with half the prize money going to the winner and the other half donated to Hertfordshire Mind Network.

The event has been made possible thanks to the free use of the pool tables at Hitchin Pool Hall, who offered their venue at no cost to support the cause.

A fantastic range of local organisations have donated raffle prizes, including:

Mullens, Tune Skool, Good To Shop, Hitchin Football Club, Stevenage Football Club, Love2Shop, Mr Mulligan, Treat Yourself, McMullens, Meow Lounge

Katie said:

"I'm so grateful for the support we've had already. Every donation helps us create something positive for men in our community."

More local businesses, creatives, and community groups are welcome to get involved.
