Mens Mental Health Hub
Hi!
My name is Karl, and I run Men Only on the Isle of Wight. Men Only's mission has been to support men, whether they need someone to talk to, some advice, or even just a place to share.
I have some news, and we need your help. Men Only have secured a former mobile office, and we will turn it into a mobile men's mental health hub. We will be able to travel across the Island, allowing us greater freedom to be where we are needed to suit you.
It is incredibly exciting and desperately needed. With this vehicle, we can be in towns and villages Islandwide, supporting the Island's festivals, events and services.
We need to do quite a bit of work on the vehicle before we can use it, and this is where you can help!
We believe in the importance of what we do, and we have already secured some funding to start the project; we still need to raise some more!
Men Only provide groups and one-to-one opportunities for men to feel supported without being judged and heard without being lectured. Our men make friends and help others in the group to feel supported. We have grown quickly over a very short time, showing how essential Men Only is on our Island. We need to reach out to more men and their families.
We have all been through so much over the last couple of years. Male suicide rates are high, and more men are still going missing, and yet there is still a gap in the mental services offering men support through listening and talking.
We can help to fill that gap. Men Only can have a positive and life-changing effect on men and their families, and it can even be life-saving.
So please, no matter how big or small your donation or time, every penny and every second WILL make a tremendous difference in many men's lives.
If you can help in any way, we will be genuinely grateful. If you have a business that can help, please can you get in touch. We will need electrical help, carpentry, and painting, amongst others. We also need hands! If you'd like to come along and muck-in, there will be endless tea, cake and great company.
Thank you in advance for your kindness and generosity of money, time or services. If you want to know more about this project, don't hesitate to contact me at [email redacted].uk.
Enjoy the before pictures!
