Mind Over Miles – A 60+ Mile Challenge for Mental Health

We’re Brothers in Need, a men’s mental health walking group, teaming up with Burton and District Mind’s Safe Haven to take on an incredible challenge — walking non-stop, over 60 miles, across the areas Burton and District Mind supports.

Why Are We Walking?

Mental health affects everyone. Too many men suffer in silence — battling stress, anxiety, depression, or life’s pressures without support. Together, we’re walking to show that no one has to face this alone.

This challenge isn’t just about miles — it’s about opening conversations, breaking stigma, and raising vital funds for Safe Haven, an out-of-hours mental health crisis café offering a lifeline for anyone struggling in Tamworth, East Staffordshire, and Lichfield.

The Route:

Starting at Safe Haven in Tamworth, we’ll trek to Burton upon Trent → Uttoxeter → Burntwood → Lichfield, before heading back to Safe Haven — walking through the day and night, non-stop.

Where Your Donations Go:

Every donation will help Safe Haven to continue to provide additional wellbeing support and activities for people accessing mental health services in our area, such as:

✔️ Mindfulness and meditation sessions

✔️ Yoga and movement for mental wellbeing

✔️ Healthy eating and nutrition workshops

✔️ Peer support groups, skills-based courses, and more

Together, We Can:

💙 Support local men’s mental health

💙 Show that asking for help is strength, not weakness

Help Us Smash This Goal!

Please donate whatever you can. Every step we take is for those who feel they can’t take one right now.

Thank You.

From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for supporting our mission to bring hope, help, and healing to our community.
