🚐🏒 Road trip day one complete!

Yesterday began in Manchester, where we met Mike and our legal team at JMW Solicitors to discuss the next steps for UKIHPA and the support we can provide to our members. Working alongside experienced sports law professionals is helping us build the strong, professional association that people across our game deserve.

We then travelled to Nottingham for an open and valuable discussion with Nottingham Lions coaches about supporting young players. Thank you to everyone who shared their experiences and ideas, and to Mark and Katrina from Switalskis for joining us. We’re looking forward to building on that conversation.

From there, it was back on the road to Durham, ready for another full day of meetings today. Plenty of miles, plenty of conversations, and a shared determination to make a difference for British ice hockey. 🇬🇧🏒

🚐🇬🇧🏒 UKIHPA ARE ON THE ROAD AGAIN!

From Thursday through to Sunday, the UKIHPA team will be travelling across the country for a busy few days of hockey meetings, rink visits and conversations with players, coaches and others across the game.

We’ll also be meeting with our legal team and solicitors to discuss the support and representation we provide to members when they need it most.

It’s a chance to listen, build relationships and keep pushing for better welfare, protection and opportunities throughout British ice hockey.

If you see us at a rink, come over and say hello. We’d love to hear from you!

WORLD SU***DE PREVENTION DAY
TOGETHER, WE ARE STRONGER

We are deeply saddened by the closure of PAPYRUS Prevention of Young Su***de, one of UKIHPA’s trusted associates. For nearly 30 years, PAPYRUS provided vital support, education and hope to young people and families across the UK.

On World Su***de Prevention Day, we want every member of the UK ice hockey family to know that you are not alone.

UKIHPA has experienced and trained professionals within our support network who are available to help both junior and adult members. We can provide a confidential first point of contact, listen without judgement and help members understand the support available to them.

Our assistance can include:

* One-to-one emotional and welfare support
* Mental-health guidance from experienced professionals
* Support for junior members and their parents or guardians
* Help for players, coaches, officials and backroom staff
* Signposting and referrals to appropriate specialist services
* Continued check-ins so members do not feel they are facing difficulties alone
* Support with pressures connected to the game, including injury, selection, safeguarding concerns and career transition

You do not have to wait until you reach crisis point before speaking to somebody. If something is affecting your wellbeing—or you are concerned about a teammate, player, friend or family member—please reach out.

Asking for help is not a weakness; it takes courage. Support, understanding and confidentiality are available when you need them.

The Samaritans are also available to everyone across the UK, free of charge, 24 hours a day:

☎️ Call 116 123

If there is an immediate danger to life, please call 999 or attend your nearest A&E department.

🏒 HAND IN HAND — THE GOAT BACKS UKIHPA! 🐐🇬🇧

This is absolutely incredible news for UKIHPA and another hugely significant moment in our journey.

We are immensely proud to receive the support of Tony Hand MBE — a true pioneer, an icon of the British game and a man widely regarded as the greatest British ice hockey player of all time.

Born in Edinburgh in 1967, Tony enjoyed an extraordinary playing and coaching career spanning more than three decades. In 1986, he made history when he was selected by the Edmonton Oilers, becoming the first British player ever to be drafted by an NHL team.

Tony’s achievements, longevity and contribution to British ice hockey have inspired generations. Few people understand the demands, pressures and challenges of the sport—or how it has developed—better than he does.

Following the recent support of his brother, Paul Hand, we are incredibly honoured to now have both Hand brothers standing behind the work and ambitions of UKIHPA.

Tony believes there is a genuine need for a professional and independent organisation that can provide guidance, representation and protection across areas including medical care, injury, insurance, welfare, career management and life after hockey.

For somebody of Tony’s stature and experience to publicly support our mission sends an incredibly powerful message:

The people within our sport deserve to be supported, represented and protected—and nobody should have to face difficult situations alone.

Thank you, Tony, for lending your name, experience and voice to UKIHPA and the future of British ice hockey.

Hand in Hand, we’re building a stronger future for everyone in our game.
