It’s All About Men

At The Men’s Project, we are all about trying to break the stigma surrounding men’s mental health. We look to create a safe and welcoming environment where men can come and feel safe to talk about their mental health and the issues they suffer with.

FAQs

Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make healthy choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood.

This is nothing against women, but unfortunately, most men will not open up in front of women. Many of the men who come to the group have not even told their wives or partner. So the Peer Support Group is men only. But there are many volunteer roles that ladies can get involved with. See our volunteer page.

The Peer Support Group meets every Monday on the first floor at Snodland Town Council, Waghorn Rd, Snodland ME6 5BQ from 7pm to 9pm

The simple answer is no. Only when you are ready. You are quite welcome to come along and just sit and listen. There is no pressure put on anyone to talk.

“If you are in any doubt in speaking out… I’ve turned to this group as had literally nothing else, after ringing all the national lines, etc. There is no judgement whatsoever and everyone, and I mean everyone is willing to help. Don’t sit in silence.”

...Like-minded guys who are suffering similar problems are there to listen and support. We can talk without boundaries and it’s a good feeling to be able to do that. Men's Mind has most definitely helped me on my road to recovery.
