Following recent signing of the Armed Forces Covenant and our collaboration with .destinyproject, we wanted to highlight our support of Andrew Stevenson, CEO and John Walter Tonner, AIoL, CertCIH, Deputy CEO of The Destiny Project as respected Veterans.
John served in the military for 10 years which included several overseas deployments, he was diagnosed with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), resulting in a medical discharge in 2022. John said ‘During a period of intense isolation and experiencing suicidal thoughts, I found solace in The Destiny Project and Destiny United, a football team with a clear mission to promote mental health awareness and support through sport. Joining this team had a transformative impact on me, offering a sense of belonging and significantly improving my self-esteem.
Currently, as the Deputy Chief Executive Officer of The Destiny Project, I am dedicated to supporting individuals who are confronted with mental health issues, poverty, and barriers to education. The kind sponsorship from the Charles Reynolds Foundation has allowed us to equip Destiny United with their new game day and training kits without TDP diverting crucial funds from the essential resources required by our members and volunteers. This generous contribution has been instrumental to the advancement of our objectives.’
