Men's Wellbeing Network. Men's Space

'We get together, walk, visit places, do stuff and enjoy the outdoors. The value is all about the 'doing stuff together' and from that come some very important conversations.

Our walking sessions are free to attend. When we run other activities (bushcraft, abseiling, caving etc) there's likely to be a small (generally around £15) per person fee which goes to the actual provider of the activities.'

Hi there, This month, I’m running 100K for Dementia UK – a cause close to my heart. Just £10 could pay for the telephone costs of two families calling its free Dementia Helpline, so any support would be appreciated. Thank you so much!
