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

Menfulness is a mens social wellbeing group who - through activities and counselling - support and promote improvement in men's lives. As most of our events are self-funding and run by volunteers, a vast majority of our fundraising goes directly to paying for counselling for our members who reach a point that they need professional support. We reduce the stigma, and remove the financial barrier and get men talking before they reach crisis.

Menfulness is led by 5 blokes from York who, like most of us, have struggled with mental health and the pressures of life.

Weve been lucky to find strength in opening up about where were at with our fellow man and we think this should be available to us all. As our network grows more men are joining us, many of which are being supported to bring their own ideas into action.

We want to keep growing this community and continue to look for funding opportunities to help us with events, activities and counselling offers to support mens wellbeing in a friendly, non-judgemental environment where you can share at your own pace.

If you or someone you know might be struggling, then please keep an eye on here and our socials for more information about how we can help.

79% of all suicides are by men. We are aware that we cant solve every mans issues, but not facing them alone really does help. By bringing guys together to laugh, talk and sometimes cry can be the difference.
