AlphaBiolabs donation boosts men’s mental health charity Sean’s Place

AlphaBiolabs has made a £500 donation to Sean’s Place, a men’s mental health charity based in Sefton, as part of its ongoing Giving Back initiative

The scheme allows family law and social work professionals who use AlphaBiolabs’ testing services to nominate local charities for funding, with winners chosen through a bimonthly draw.

The latest draw winner, Victoria Hardy, a legal assistant at Sefton Council, selected Sean’s Place to receive the donation. The charity provides free emotional and practical support to men across Sefton and Liverpool, offering group and one-to-one sessions that focus on confidence building, talking therapies, creative activities and skills development.

Debbie Rogers, Founder and CEO of Sean’s Place, expressed gratitude for the donation, saying it would help the charity continue offering vital support to men experiencing mental health challenges. AlphaBiolabs Director Rachel Davenport praised the organisation’s work, highlighting its important role in promoting early intervention and reducing isolation among men in the local community.

The first Giving Back winner of 2026 will be announced in January, continuing AlphaBiolabs’ commitment to supporting community-focused causes through its unique charitable initiative.

For more information about AlphaBiolabs’ services, including drug, alcohol and DNA testing, call the New Enquiry team on 0333 600 1300, email testing@alphabiolabs.com or request a quote online.
