Beder FC is a football club that aims to raise awareness of mental health and suicide prevention. It was started as part of an initiative by the mental health charity, Beder, which was founded in 2019 by Razzak Mirjan. When his younger brother, Beder, tragically and unexpectedly took his own life, Razzak set the organisation up with the vision of taking a unique, soft touch approach to challenging the stigma around mental health and suicide prevention in his brother’s name. As well as initiatives like a charity cookbook and free therapy vouchers, Beder FC is a key part of the charity’s work – the club is open to all and uses the power of football to bring people together, normalise conversations around mental health and raise money for the charity’s work.
