TPLT Latest News: Former rugby International raises £1660 to help men’s mental health
Jill Dando News
Big hearted Jake Caulfield, Head of Year 9 at Priory Community School Academy, in Weston-super-Mare, Somerset did a “Mo for a Bro” involving a physical challenge of completing 60km a week by running, walking or cycling.
This week he shaved off his moustache and was delighted at the amount raised.
His charity aims began after two people he knew tried to take their own lives – and he is eager for other men to come forward to share their problems to others.
Jake, a former PCSA student, is current Head Coach at North Petherton RFU and has played rugby for England and Ireland, as well as Bath and Ulster.
He said: “Thank you to everyone who supported me. This is a wonderful cause to donate to and one that is very special to me.”
Jake trained as a teacher with The Priory Learning Trust. Contact www.theplt.org.uk for more details about teacher training within TPLT.
