Jake Edwards - Outside the Locker Room

  • Summary

  • It never fails to astound me that, every minute of every day, another man kills himself somewhere in the world …. at the same time, at least another 20 are trying – My guest tomorrow, Jake Edwards, is a fourth generation AFL player who describes one of his proudest moments in life - running out onto the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) in front of 80,000 people.. in the same breath he discloses the lowest point … facing a bathroom mirror, contemplating how to end his life.

    7 years later, in 2015 Jake pulled out all the stops and created a welfare and education program for Australian sporting clubs, called "Outside the Locker Room", which in almost 4 years, has become one of the most sought after and well recognised programmes being used by more than 100 grassroots sporting clubs and schools across Australia.
