Men’s mental health matters. Too many men still struggle in silence. Sport gives a sense of belonging and purpose that can make a powerful difference. Being part of a team, staying active and having people around you who check in – it all helps build confidence and protect wellbeing.

At EWG Counselling, we’re committed to making support accessible for everyone.
We’re a not for profit service offering low cost counselling from £15 to £25 per session for individuals, couples and young people aged 13 plus. There is no waiting list. If someone needs help, we make sure they’re seen quickly.

If you or someone you know could benefit from support, LINK IN BIO www.ewgcounselling.co.uk

Together we can champion mental health and strengthen our community. 💙🏉
