Players can attend the Hawks for up to two years to assist them with their recovery journey. Members have reported improved mental wellbeing, confidence and self esteem. They feel accepted; have made new friends, but most of all have fun playing football in a supportive environment where they do not feel judged. Quote from a player "Before I started playing for hawks I was always feeling scared, shy, worried, alone and suicidal, but now I feel like my life is going far and is worth living"
