We are delighted to announce that we have officially teamed up with Nottingham City Council to install a brand-new blOKes bench on Victoria Embankment. Much like the one featured in the Netflix series Afterlife, this mental health awareness-raising bench will be designed to provide a tranquil, peaceful site for members of the local community to reflect and relax. Please help us reach our required target of £1,200 to allow this new bench and accompanying plaque to be installed by International Men's Day on Saturday 19th November.

Since launching our After Life Bench JustGiving page in June, we have been overwhelmed by both the donations and the supportive messages we've received. Having spoken with representatives from Nottingham City Council this week, we have been informed that Netflix has since provided a replacement bench for the Arboretum. With this in mind, we are delighted to reveal that the money raised will now be going towards an exciting new project alongside Nottingham City Council, where we will be placing a blOKes bench in another park in the city!
