The Five Ways of Mandem Meetup are based on the Five Ways of Wellbeing and are – Talk, Walk, Train, Learn & Help.

Talk: Their talking circles provide a safe space for men to talk about what's going on in their lives without judgement or expectation and to find peer support.

Walk: Their walking groups connect men to nature as well as promoting exercising and providing opportunities for talking and building friendships. Staff and young people deliver training to officers as well as taking part in a programme all about Aspirations.

Train: They run physical training sessions to improve body function and health.

Learn: They provide opportunities to learn new skills through workshops and training.

Help: As a community, they provide practical support for men most in need, such as offering provisions for men who are homeless.

Steve from IF says...

The need for Mandem Meetup's work is demonstrated by the growth in their community since they started in 2019. We were impressed by their holistic approach to men's wellbeing and by their passion to change the conversation around men's mental health.
