Everton legend Trevor Steven is tackling construction site workers’ vulnerability to suicide and urging those who work in the industry to complete an anonymous survey seeking solutions to the issue.
Former England World Cup player Steven was part of Everton’s most-successful team in the 1980s, winning two League Championships, an FA Cup and European Cup-Winners’ Cup, scoring both in the final and semi-final of the latter, which were among the 60 goals he netted in 299 appearances. And he is now Causeway Technologies’ mental health ambassador.
He told the ECHO: “I’d taken a strong interest in elite performance mentality, studied it and was looking at doing talks on it for corporate audiences and Phil (Brown, chief executive of Causeway Technologies) got in touch with me and told me about his partnership with Everton in the Community and how they had donated money into the building of The People’s Place on Spellow Lane.
