Please take a look at this article and help out with contacts.

We'll shortly be undertaking a call to action, to map and sign up, under our powerful brand, all mens health activities across Tees Valley.

The time has come for a new comprehensive mens health network to connect the efforts and make it easy and appealing for men to access support. We are the response to that need.

Watch. This. Space.

🙍‍♂️More than two million men balance caring responsibilities alongside work, family life, and their own health. Yet men are less likely to receive help and often cope alone.

🤗Peer support and social connection can make a real difference offering men a chance to share experiences, swap ideas, and hear from others in similar situations. Across South Tees, a variety of men’s groups and peer-support spaces provide social connection and practical support.

If you run or know of a support group for men in South Tees, please let us know—we’d love to hear from you!

The concept of a "dark sauna" merges the traditional benefits of a sauna with an intriguing twist—immersing oneself in near-total darkness. This environment can enhance relaxation and focus, as the absence of visual stimuli other than the rhythmic lap of light form the wood burnign stove allows individuals to turn inward, promoting a deeper meditative state, ideal for a 30 min guided meditation and cooling breathwork to relax further.

In a dark sauna, the calming heat helps to open up pores, detoxify the body, and improve circulation, while the darkness can heighten one's other senses, leading to a more profound mindfulness experience. Additionally, this unique setting can encourage a sense of peace and solitude, making it an ideal escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. As with any sauna experience, it's essential to stay hydrated and listen to your body, ensuring a safe and rejuvenating experience.

🚀 Every Man Can CIC: Expanding the Movement for Men's Health

We’re thrilled to announce new collaborations and a powerful relaunch of our work in Middlesbrough and beyond. Just today, we met with Martin Dunning and Stephen from Recovery Connectionss to explore collaborations between our trauma-informed Fire and Ice Community Sauna and their upcoming Men’s Prehab Service in Redcar & Cleveland.

🔥❄️ Fire and Ice Community Sauna with a Purpose
Our contrast therapy model—Sauna and Cold Plunge—goes beyond wellness. It’s a trauma-informed, community-rooted experience that supports everyones healing, resilience, and connection, with profits supporting our mens health activities as well as fire and ice's own community initiatives such as self funded sauna places for local volunteers.

🧠 Champion Training & Project Development
We’re building a brand that empowers men through:
Easy navigation to mens health activities and projects
Champion training
Project incubation
Digital storytelling
Conflict prevention workshops
1:1 support pathways

📅 Save the Date: November 28th
Join us in Redcar from 10am–12:30pm for the relaunch of our Men’s Health Showcase Events, in partnership with Kyle Snowdon from Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council.
We’ll be:
Logging men’s health assets across Redcar & Cleveland
Launching a new Tees Valley-wide men’s health network
Connecting professionals working with men to collaborate and amplify impact, hearing from each others experiences.

🌍 Building the Network
Phase one: A network for practitioners and organisations working to empower men.
Phase two: A community for boys and men to access local, self-led health and wellbeing routes—online and in person—with storytelling at its heart.

🎙️ Already in Motion
We’re already been supporting initiatives that help men “Find what works for them,” including:
Speaking workshops
Conflict prevention training
Digital storytelling pilots with Humanities and Social Sciences Teesside University O'Neill
Self-funded access for key groups to our Fire and Ice Community Sauna

📬 Stay connected: Sign up to our mailing list and follow us on socials for updates, stories, and opportunities to get involved.

46 episodes of the three wise fools and Mental Strength podcast revealed so many useful topic-based insights that the men in your life haven't heard yet.

This su***de prevention awareness day, the theme is around keeping the narrative going and well, we're all about that and proud of the Teesside-based mental strength podcast episodes.

Sadly, all good things come to an end, and whilst the Matts have moved on to other passion projects, our legacy of episodes remains as a resource.

The pod will return soon but the men's health narrative never stops.

That's me there, Richie, daydreaming about the potential of

Time for updates as we approach our first year since trading and reinvesting to our communities on what we've done and what we're going to do next.

Firstly, just tag one man in the comments or share this post to get one more man to follow us.

EMC CIC PLAN UPDATE

Phase 1:
✅️Established Every Man Can CIC and started pilot programmes and collabs. Exciting first phase brought us amazing founding director offerings establishing our trading social enterprise. That included, for everyone, a mental strength podcast and podcast services, sauna therapies and training in our communities to to directly fund our growth. With help from Northern Safety Ltd for first aid training as well as ongoing collabs with Green Seas Yoga, Be Still - for mind and body CIC, Wyke Lodges & Touring Caravans, Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council, and more.

✅️ Invested in conflict prevention training sessions with Amanda Chalmers, a lived experience Speakers programme with Matt Homan as well as issuing small donation support grants to local men's programmes Men's Pie Club and The Link Charitable Trust mens group and into our own beneficiary savings pot.

🫂😊🙏Thanks to every single one of you who has supported us in so many different ways from our evaluative research partnerships led by the amazing Shelina Visram, to our founding directors, to our first little team of volunteers and creators, and our paying customers who have helped directly fund our growth and ability to support others, often photographed and filmed on his own time by Mr Matt Stirland .

It's been hard work and has included personal and huge professional challenges along the way and it's involved so many positive interactions, I cannot list them all. Thank you, to you all. You all taught me something new. ❤️🤠

Next up.
Phase 2 and 3

➡️Every Man Can awareness campaign to join the dots with men's health activity partners already doing their thing across Tees Valley.

➡️We will create, from our research insights, a Tees Valley Mens Health Network, a connected and varied offer for men.

➡️We'll follow the evaluative research from our own previous BoroManCan evaluation to lead our priorities.

➡️We will then get about working with, listening to, connecting and empowering change-ready men and boys to those who can help them find what works for them, before the s**t hits the fan in their lives, with their minds, bodies and relationships.

➡️ Beyond that, well maybe you, the person reading this have an idea to develop alongside our own longer term plans.

Get in touch with us at
Every Man Can to donate, sponsor, add value to your own programmes, services and work with us and our services to help more men, do better. And maybe, just maybe we get noticed or funded by organisations like who have basically nailed it where we can smash it at the Teesside level.

Let's keep moving.

EVERY MAN CAN, FOR MEN TO IMPROVE THEIR HEALTH AND FIND WHAT WORKS FOR YOU.
