The Eddie Butler Performance Centre is inviting the local community to celebrate its first birthday with a week of fitness, wellbeing and fundraising in support of the Ted Senior Foundation.

Taking place from Monday 10th to Friday 14th August at the Monmouth School Sports Club on Hadnock Road, (NP25 3NG), Charity Week will bring together local businesses, health professionals and the community for five days of activities designed to promote physical and mental wellbeing while raising funds for an important local cause.

The programme includes Open Gym Sessions, a 12-Hour Static Bike Challenge, Trail Classes, Outdoor Pilates and Yoga, Give It A Go Badminton and Pickleball, as well as Men's Mental Health Talk and a Drop-in Physiotherapy Session.

Every event will be accompanied by a food vendor including Little Dragon Pizza, The Meat Hut, M&M Ices, Three Sisters Bread, Tempting Tastes, The Good Stuff and Chock Shop. Each vendor will be donating a percentage of profits to The Ted Senior Foundation, helping to raise awareness and provide support for mental health initiatives.

Raglan-based Ted Senior was a popular student at Monmouth Comprehensive School rising to make head boy in his last year. He was not only involved in community fundraisers such as Monmouth’s Got Talent but also a talented player for Monmouth RFC, East Wales, and the Dragons.

He was an aspiring medical student but sadly took his own life in February 2018.

The Ted Senior Foundation (TSF) was formed by his family to support young men's mental health and pays for one individual within each sports club at University who has undergone training in mental health first aid.
