Upcoming Events
An Audience with David White and Paul Lake
Tuesday 25 August 2026, The Bonded Warehouse, Manchester
A quiet hey can break the loudest silence.
On Tuesday 25th August, we're bringing two former Manchester City players into the same room for an honest evening about football, life, and the check-ins we keep putting off.
David White played as a forward for City, Leeds United and England. He knows the highs the game can give you, and he has spoken openly about the hardest chapter of his life. Paul Lake captained City and was on course for an England career before a knee injury ended his playing days at 24. He has written and talked honestly about what followed, and about what happens when the thing you built your life around is taken away.
Two men, two very different endings, and the same decision to talk about it. Both stand with us as Hey Dan brand ambassadors because they believe, as we do, that a small and ordinary conversation can change everything.
This is an evening for everyone, not just football fans and not just people who already think about their mental health. Most of us know someone who is quietly struggling. Most of us have been that person too. Come and listen.
Leave ready to check in on someone.
Every hey could be the one that makes someone feel seen, supported and still here.
