  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Sh*t, Shower & Self-care podcast.


    In this episode I'm joined by Tim Cruickshank from Sheffield Mind to discuss another side to him.

    There's a very good chance that if you have ever played football in Sheffield then Tim has refereed you at some point.

    There's also a good chance you will have heard his pre-match speech to set the tone.

    Tim give an insight into why he is a ref, why he enjoys it and how he still gets more from it despite some of the less than pleasant things that get said during a game.


    Later in the episode Tim talks about his role model, about someone who taught him about masculinity and how important it was to see himself represented in sport and in TV by perhaps the greatest of all time, especially when faced with the abhorrent nature of racism both implicit and explicit.


    Tim has helped to create a safe space for men to talk and for men to share when things arent going so well. Tim's advice from the last episode was "give it a go, just knock on the door" so here's the link: https://www.sheffieldmind.co.uk/news/mankind-mental-health-support-for-men
