Good afternoon, folks! Happy Saturday ☔️

To confirm, here are our dates for February:

- Coffee Morning: Saturday 14 February, 10am to 12 noon ☕️, The Drill Hall, Sandwich

- Monthly meet-up: Thursday 26 February, 7-9pm, @ St. Clement’s Church Hall, Sandwich

FAQs:
- If I want to come along, do I need to book? —> No, but ideally give me a shout and I’ll make a note of your name for either event 👍🏻⭕️

- Is there any cost? —> The Coffee Morning is usually a case of each man pays for himself, but… if any man is struggling and still fancies a cuppa, we will buy you a brew! ☕️

For the monthly meet-up, there is a £10 energy exchange fee (payable by cash or card). Hot drinks and nibbles will be provided on the night 🫖

- How does it work? What will happen? —> We will either have a monthly theme to explore, or we’ll work in small groups with a simple activity — no man is obliged to talk, share, or have his photo taken. Respect is a core value at our circle ⭕️.

Any other questions? Get in touch!

Meaningful connection, no WiFi needed! 🛜

See you soon,
DC 💚✊🏻

Here’s a little update on the monthly meet-up for the Men’s Circle, which took place last week:

Seeing as we had a pizza night in December instead of our regular monthly meet-up, that meant that we hadn’t all been together since the end of November — a lot of the regulars admitted that this is a long time to go without ‘proper man time’! 💪🏻

There were 16 of us, and the truth is, as the space-holder for our circle, I was urged by a good number of the lads to get myself involved with the group activities again (something I hadn’t done for 3-4 months), hence why there aren’t any photos! 😜

The session itself was incredibly powerful, like it always is; there were 2-4 new faces, like there always are, and once things got going, it was truly a massive privilege to watch and listen to the regular comers carry the ethos of what we do every month: being honest, being open, being vulnerable, and so much more that words cannot possibly describe.

As a result, it created and still creates this wonderful inclusive space, regardless of whether it’s your first or tenth circle ⭕️

Vulnerability is what it’s all about, so here’s my share: I’ve been struggling lately, struggling with life, with health, with children, with marriage, with bills, with the day-to-day grind… and about 10 days ago, I shared it with the group. What happened? They rallied around me, sent numerous messages of support, asked me if I needed anything, and one gent even left me a self-care package on my doorstep (shout out to you, GC 💎). I was so overwhelmed by the kindness and support, and it reminded me that, like all men, I do struggle, but I don’t have to struggle alone. None of us do.

We have built and continue to build deep connection, without any WiFi needed! 🛜

To round off, here is a photo from the Coffee Morning we also had in mid-January, one which I couldn’t attend due to ill health. Let all the credit go to these fine men 🙏🏻⭕️⭐️

Stay tuned on here as updates will be coming soon about the important dates for February! 🗓️

Men’s Circle — January 2026 ⭕️

A grounded space for men to slow down, breathe, and reconnect.

This is not a lecture. Not therapy. Not a place to posture or perform... It’s a simple, respectful circle — a chance to sit with other men, speak honestly (or simply listen), and remember what steadiness and respect feel like in the body 🙏

🗓 Thursday 29 January 2026
🕖 7–9pm
📍 St. Clement’s Church Hall (hall only — not the church itself)
💷 £10 exchange fee (cash or card)
👥 All MEN welcome

You don’t need to prepare anything.
You don’t need to share if you don’t want to.
Just come as you are.
If this speaks to you, message me directly.

💚✊

Rhetorical question: How many of you can resonate with this, or know someone who perhaps has been like this? 🤔⭕️

FOR THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO THINK THEY MUST STAY STRONG

Please, have a listen… 👇🏻

A short video about the increasingly common yet heartbreaking news of people feeling like they have no other option but to take their own lives 💔

This video was ‘inspired’ by recent events, people within my social circles that have been affected by someone choosing to end things — let’s be honest, we’ve all experienced that in some way, am I wrong?

We need to get talking. We need to change the narratives. ALL lives matter, including yours, including mine, including any man, woman, or child 🙏🏻

For anyone who has read this far, would you do me a favour?

1. Would you share this with anyone you feel / think needs to hear it?
2. Would you help us all to normalise emotions for men and young boys, not just women and young girls? How so? React to this post with a 😢 , let’s make it normal to express ourselves fully…

Thank you 🙏🏻
😢🙏🏻♥️

Approx. listening time: 3-4 mins

Here’s an update of what’s been happening with the Men’s Circle in October ⭕️

We firstly had our coffee morning a couple of Saturdays ago, and for anyone who is new to this page, or more importantly, this idea, our coffee morning is a casual get-together where we simply have coffee, chat, and the time flies by! ☕️

Then, we had our monthly meet-up for October just a couple of nights ago… It was a great pleasure to be able to welcome 3 new faces on Thursday, as well as seeing some of the regular lads as well 🙏🏻
Our theme for the month was ‘The stuff we don’t say’, which I came up with because I wanted to provide a platform for all the men attending to be able to speak their minds, listen to their fellow men, and build those connections 🤝🏻

In truth, it was an incredibly powerful session, and some of the shares were heavy at times, to say the least… But that’s the point: that’s the space we have, that’s what we can do here, it’s a way of unburdening yourself — you don’t have to carry this alone anymore… not now ⭕️❤️

What else? It’s now November, which also means Movember 🥸

Last year we raised £327 for the Movember UK foundation, and so this year our goal is to reach £350!!
If you’d like to support us, you can donate below (every penny helps), you can grow a mo, or you can simply get talking about things like mental health, prostate cancer awareness, and so much more!

As ever, I remain grateful and privileged, so thank you all!
