About Mentalmate...

Everyone should have someone to talk to. It sounds so simple, yet so many people don’t have that, which is where Mentalmate comes in! Mentalmate are building a group of mental mates through boxing down at the Mentalmate Boxing Gym in the Neepsend area of Sheffield 6 days per week . Mentalmate have found it can be much easier to talk and discuss your feelings whilst exercising, if attendees do not wish to talk then that’s fine but it’s nice to know that you are surrounded by people who are all there for the same reason.

'We started up Mentalmate following our founders battles with their own mental health problems , one of the main coping mechanisms for him was boxing. Boxing allowed him to clear his head and relieve some stress and anxiety whilst also building up my physical fitness. In January 2020 we decided to start Mentalmate as we wondered how many other people felt the same as us. How many other people would enjoy getting together and doing some boxing and talking? '
