York 10k · 6 August 2023 ·

We bring men together to socialise, exercise, talk and let off steam in a non-judging, friendly and supportive environment. These are all essential for wellbeing and health, both physical and mental. We remove barriers for men to access counselling in order to help deal with the challenges of life.

Story

Lynsey, Mike and Katrina are running the York 10k to raise funds for an invaluable local charity supporting mens mental health; Menfulness.

We have been touched by poor mental health; whether that be personally or seeing a loved one struggle. Sadly, three quarters of all suicides in the UK since the mid 1990s have been male. With the stigma of having to “man up”, men are suffering in silence.

Menfulness provide an inclusive and safe space for men seeking support with their mental health. With an open-minded, non-judgmental approach, men using their service are assured that it’s ok to not be ok.

Menfulness offer a vital service for those struggling with their mental health, including free counselling, social activities and exercise. As Menfulness is a charity, they can only provide their support with donations and fund raising. 

We ask if you can donate anything; even just £1, it will go some way to helping Menfulness break down the barriers with mens mental health, and continue to offer the life saving services to men needing their help. 

Thank you in advance for any donation you can make. If you can’t donate, please share this on your social media.

Love

Lynsey, Mike and Katrina
