5 YEARS. Over 80 GROUPS. ONE BROTHERHOOD. 🥾🎂

In May 2021, Men Walking and Talking started with one man in Telford. We had no idea then that a single step would turn into a national movement across 33 counties.

To celebrate our 5th Birthday, we are heading back to our roots in Shropshire for our biggest walk yet. We want every walker, leader, and supporter to join us as we celebrate five years of breaking the silence and walking side-by-side.

📍 THE BIRTHDAY WALK
We’re lacing up for a massive community walk at the iconic Carding Mill Valley. This isn't just a hike; it’s a celebration of every man who decided to take that first step, and a reminder to those still struggling that: *"You don’t know it yet, but you make it."*

When: May 17th, 2026
Where: Carding Mill Valley, Shropshire.

🎟️ REGISTER TO JOIN US

5 YEARS, Over 85 GROUPS, AND ONE HELL OF A JOURNEY. 🥾

Five years ago, I was standing in a car park in Telford, staring at the floor and wondering if anyone would actually show up. I didn’t have a grand strategy or a national map; I just had a head full of noise and a desperate need to find a better way to navigate life.

On that first walk, just one guy joined me. But that was enough.

Today, Men Walking and Talking has grown into a national brotherhood with over 85 active groups across 33 counties**. We’ve gone from one man in a car park to hundreds of men walking side-by-side every week, proving every single week that the "man up" narrative is total BS. We’ve replaced silence with conversation, and isolation with a community that actually has your back.

**WHERE IT ALL BEGAN 📍
To celebrate our 5th Birthday, we are going back to our roots in Shropshire. On May 17th, we’re heading to the Carding Mill Valley and the Long Mynd NT for our big 5th Birthday celebration 🎊.

This event isn’t just about marking a date on the calendar. It’s about celebrating every man who decided to take that first step. It’s about the Walk Leaders who give their time to keep the path open.

🎟️ JOIN THE BROTHERHOOD
We want as many of you there as possible. Whether you’re a regular at your local group or you’ve been lurking on our page for months waiting for a sign to join—this is it. Lace up and let’s walk. Everyone is welcome!

Register your place for the birthday walk here: 👉 https://www.menwalkingandtalking.co.uk/event/5-mile-laps-for-5-years-of-mwat/

💰 HELP US REACH THE NEXT PIN
Our goal is simple: a pin on the map for every man in the UK. We are a lean, grassroots charity, and we reinvest everything back into the front lines. If you can’t make the walk, or if you want to help us fuel the next five years of growth, please consider a donation to our birthday appeal.

Support the mission on JustGiving: 👉 https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/mwatbirthday?utm_medium=CF&utm_source=CL

Thank you for standing side-by-side with me for the last five years. I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built, but I’m even more proud of the men who walk the path every week.

It's not just our Men Walking and Talking groups up and down the country benefiting from the lighter nights, people all over are taking in the sunshine and the countless benefits it brings.

Exercise and daylight is scientifically proven to boost your mood, improve your sleep, lower stress and anxiety and enhance your cognitive behaviour.

Our gents don't always join our walks because they are struggling, they know that small benefits like this can only contribute to their days and weeks with the aim to improve their quality of life.

So if you fancy getting some of this into your routine, our details remain the same each week, we just need you to turn up!

LOOK DEEPER: THE HIDDEN FACES OF TRAUMA 🌑

We often think of trauma as something visible or loud, but for many men, it is a silent battle fought behind a composed exterior. As our latest graphic reminds us, men’s trauma doesn’t always look like tears.

Trauma can hide in plain sight, manifesting in ways we often overlook:

Silence: Withdrawing from those who care about us the most.

Anger: Using irritability as a shield for deeper pain.

Perfectionism & Workaholism: Burying ourselves in achievements and long hours to avoid facing internal struggles.
Addiction: Seeking temporary escapes from persistent mental weight.

Join the Movement

Whether your trauma is a whisper or a roar, you don't have to carry it alone. With over 80 groups active across the UK, there is a pin on our map waiting for you.

Take the first step today:

I wrote this about a year ago and it seems even more relevant now.

Remembering who I was before life told me to act a certain way or be a different person has been so important for me over the past few years.

Join us for a walk at one of over 80 groups around the country.

You will be welcomed as you are!

For most of you, this week will mark the start of Easter holidays which for some, the break will be needed, but the main focus will be on ensuing the family are looked after... and probably lose focus on yourself.

It also marks the changing of the clocks, meaning after several long, ardous months of walking in the cold and the dark, our Men Walking and Talking groups will be gathering for a healthy bit of exercise and chatting in daylight... And hopefully sunshine!

So wherever you are this coming week, either in Nuneaton or somewhere for a staycation in the UK, make sure you're doing something healthy for yourself and check out one of our groups up and down the country.

Things Men Want (But Rarely Ask For).

🗣️In a world that expects us to be the providers, the rocks, and the problem-solvers, there’s a lot we end up carrying in silence. We’ve been conditioned to think that asking for what we need is a sign of a crack in the armor.

But let's be real—every man needs these things. We just don't always know how to say it:

🔹 To be heard without being "fixed." Sometimes we don’t need a solution; we just need to say the words out loud and have someone nod and say, "I hear you, mate."

🔹 A space to drop the "Strong Man" act. The constant pressure to have it all together is exhausting. We want a place where "I’m struggling" doesn't result in judgment.

🔹 Genuine Brotherhood. Beyond the banter and the surface-level chat, we want connections with men who actually know what’s going on in our lives.

🔹 Permission to be vulnerable. We want to know that showing our cards isn't going to cost us our "man card."

🔹 Validation. To be told that we are doing a good job—as fathers, as partners, and as men—exactly as we are right now.

At Men Walking and Talking, you don’t have to ask for these things. They are built into the path.When you show up for a walk, you’re entering a space where these needs are understood. There’s no ego, no "fixing," and no pressure to be anything other than yourself.If you’ve been waiting for someone to give you permission to need a hand—this is it.

Come for a walk. Let the guard down. The brotherhood has got you.

🎄 A Different Kind of Christmas Wish.

The "Perfect Christmas" is a myth that does a lot of damage to men’s mental health.

If your reality today doesn't look like a card—if there is conflict, silence, grief, or a heavy heart—this message is for you.

At Men Walking and Talking, we know that for many of our brothers, today isn't about "celebrating"; it’s about navigating. It's about getting through the hours until the pressure of the "Big Day" passes.

Our reminder to you today:

It is okay if you aren't "the life of the party."

It is okay if you need to step out for a walk alone.

It is okay if "surviving" is your only goal.

You aren't "failing" at Christmas. You are managing a difficult season with the tools you have.

If this Christmas is heavy, remember that the paths are still there, the brotherhood is still here, and better days are coming. You’ve got this, and you aren't walking alone.

Merry Christmas to all our brothers, however you are spending it.

Thinking of you all.
