Founder and CEO Chris Paul will spend his day off on Friday hosting a live podcast detailing the work Man On does in the community.

Chris will be joined by several guests on the day and will discuss topics such as suicide prevention, wellbeing and sport.

He aims to raise a £1,500, with his JustGiving page currently sitting at more than £1,380.

In his video, Taylor said: “Well done to everyone at Man On Inverclyde.

“Unbelievable work in the town and just want to give you a message of support.

“Thank you very much – and everyone donate where they can.”
