Colchester United Community Foundation (CUCF) are thrilled to introduce ‘Team Talk’, a new initiative funded by a £20,000 grant from the National Lottery Community Fund. The programme is designed for adults aged 18-45 years old, this programme aims to enhance mental health and wellbeing in Colchester through weekly football sessions and support activities.
