GRIT ACTION MAN

Not the one we grew up with…
The one we actually need.

No cape.
No superpowers.
No pretending.

Just a man who shows up.



Built on discipline.
Driven by purpose.
Grounded in respect.

But most of all…

Willing to speak.
Willing to listen.
Willing to stand shoulder to shoulder with other men.



Because it’s not just about being a man anymore.

It’s about
speaking and showing.

🏁 THE GRIT RUN 🏁

Not just another meet up.
This is about showing up.
Being around the right people.
Building something real.



We’re starting to build a core now.
Lads who turn up.
Lads who commit.

This one’s for them…
but it’s open to anyone ready to step in.



Real food.
Real talk.
Real connection.



You can sit on the sidelines…
or get in the driver’s seat.

GRIT – NEXT SESSION

Wednesday 6th May
6PM

This one’s different.

No room.
No chairs in a circle.
No usual setup.

We’re doing it properly.

Homemade goulash.
Shared food.
Real conversation.

Location stays off the map.

If you want in, you text:
07956065022
Confirm you’re coming… and you’ll get the details.



Because this matters.

Sitting down together.
Eating together.
Talking properly.

That’s where trust is built.
That’s where walls come down.
That’s where real connections are made.

Not just showing up…
but being part of something.



If you’re in… step forward.

GRIT WAS TONIGHT

Even though there were only 8 of us…
we knew where the others were.

And that’s what this group is about.

Showing up.
For yourself.
And for each other.

Because turning up matters more than you think.
It builds discipline.
It builds trust.
It reminds you, you’re not on your own.

Some nights it’s easy.
Some nights it’s the last place you feel like going.

But those are the nights that count.

We don’t always get it perfect…
but we always show up.

Some lads won’t say they need this…
But they do.

No pressure to talk.
No judgement if you do.

Just a room full of men being real.

If it’s been building up lately,
come down tonight.

Or bring someone who needs it.

It’s GRIT tomorrow.

No big speeches.
No pressure.
Just real conversations with real men.

Because let’s be honest…

Most men are carrying something right now—
Work stress.
Money pressure.
Family stuff.
Things they don’t talk about.

And that silence?
That’s where it builds.

GRIT is where that changes.

A place to:

* Get things off your chest
* Listen to others going through the same
* Leave feeling lighter, clearer, stronger

You don’t need to “prepare” anything.
Just turn up.

📍 Linton Brick Rooms
📅 Tomorrow (Wednesday 22nd April)
⏰ 7pm – 9pm

Know someone who needs this?
Tag him. Message him. Bring him.

Because silence isn’t strength…
Talking is.

20/04/2026

Do you know the reality for men in Derbyshire?

The stats don’t lie…

* Su***de is the biggest killer of men under 50 in the UK
* Around 3 out of 4 su***des are men
* In areas like Derbyshire, male su***de rates are above the national average
* Many men admit they don’t talk about how they feel until it’s too late

But here’s the part that hits hardest…

Most of these men weren’t “weak”
They were silent

Working. Providing. Showing up.
But struggling underneath it all.

That’s exactly why GRIT exists.

A place where men can:

* Talk openly
* Be heard without judgement
* Realise they’re not the only one feeling it

Because staying quiet isn’t strength…
Talking is.

📍 Linton Brick Rooms
📅 Next session: 22nd April
⏰ 7pm – 9pm

If you know a man who could benefit from this…
Tag him. Message him. Bring him.

You never know what someone’s carrying.

A lot of men are running on empty…
They just don’t say it.

Pressure from work.
Money worries.
Family responsibilities.
Expectations.
Silence.

It builds up.

And before you know it…
you’re running low, trying to keep everything going while your own battery’s flashing red.

That’s exactly why GRIT exists.

A space to:
• Talk openly
• Get things off your chest
• Listen and be heard
• Reset and recharge

No pressure. No judgement. Just real conversations with real men.

Next session:
📅 Wednesday 22nd April
⏰ 7pm – 9pm
📍 Linton Brick Rooms

If you’ve been thinking about coming… take this as your sign.

You don’t have to carry everything on your own.

Come and recharge.

If IKEA designed men… this is what you’d get.

No fancy packaging.
No perfect finish.
Just a flat pack of parts trying to hold it together.

A heart that’s taken knocks.
A mind that overthinks.
Discipline that comes and goes.
Courage that sometimes needs a push.
Purpose still being figured out.

And like any IKEA build…
There’s always a moment where you sit there thinking,
“Have I completely messed this up?”

But here’s the truth
No man is built in one go.
No one gets all the parts right first time.

You adjust.
You rebuild.
You learn as you go.

That’s what GRIT is.

Not perfection.
Just men, building themselves, properly, over time.

Because no single part builds a man…
It’s the whole assembly.

Next session: 22nd April
Linton Brick Rooms, Swadlincote
7–9pm

Come down. Or don’t carry it alone.

Glass half full or half empty?

Last night at GRIT, 11 lads showed up.
1 new face in the room.

Some might look at that and think…
“Only 11?”

We look at it differently.

That’s 11 men who chose to turn up.
11 men who made time.
11 men who spoke, listened, or just sat in a room where they didn’t have to pretend.

And 1 new lad who walked into something unknown that takes guts.

That’s the glass half full.

Because this isn’t about numbers.
It’s about impact.

Every conversation matters.
Every man in that room matters.

We’re building something here… slowly, properly, and with purpose.

If you’re thinking about coming down, take that first step.

You won’t be the only one feeling it.
