5k a day (01/07/24 to 26/10/24 · 25 October 2024

We exist to support All Men’s mental health, improve men's quality of life, expand and enrich men’s connections. We facilitate activities that support positive mental, physical and emotional health and wellbeing for men. We run weekly groups, sessions and activities, facilitated on a peer to peer basis where men can meet in a safe and friendly place, talk openly, be listened to and feel supported without judgment within a confidential setting from people who are equal to you – your peers. Men from all walks of life come together daily/weekly to share their experiences, their struggles and their advice with one another. In our peer support network and groups you are able to talk to other men who have first-hand lived experience of similar situations. Men can come along, take part, have fun, get fit, meet new people. Or men can simply come along, see what we are about and listen without any pressure to talk. This is absolutely fine too.

Story

My 5k a day is something I have picked to challenge myself mentally & physically to push myself away from the “ aww I will do it tomorrow “ excuse that I use for a lot of things in life and that includes looking after my well-being.

I am raising money for this charity as they do amazing work offering men a safe space to go to get help with their mental health without been judged or made to wait months & months for someone to talk to.

They also offer a place to go just for company and to relax while advice can be given regarding all aspects of life . Not only do they help men but they guide and direct woman to similar groups.

Mental health is a big part of todays society with a lot of people not knowing were to turn to or seek help due to a stigma that needs brought down.

Please don’t suffer in silence and reach out ❤️
