Story
Me, my brother (Sam Lovelidge) and two of my best pals (Matthew Bean and Sam Coy) are taking on the ‘Walk in the Park’ challenge in support of male mental health in Lincolnshire. We will be walking over 30 miles on the 8th May 2021. We will be starting from the local park in Welton and walking to Belton House in Grantham. It is estimated to take over 11 hours.
Over 75% of Lincolnshire Suicides are Men and 63% of those had struggled with their mental health for a long time. Funds raised go to fund the Team Talk project, setting up hubs across Lincolnshire to support men. Team talk pledges to tackle male mental health in Lincolnshire by providing dedicated wellbeing hubs, activities, advice and support for men ages 18+.We aim to support to set up hubs throughout Lincolnshire, giving men a safe space, and peer to peer support to talk about their problems, find advice and take part in activities designed to improve their well-being.
Please support us with this challenge as it’s something we all believe can make a massive difference to many males across Lincolnshire.
