Man Down Greenwich fortnightly mental health talking group

💬 What is Man Down?
Join us in our mission to reduce male suicides and combat the stigma around mental health! We provide a welcoming space exclusively for men to express their emotions during our informal, free fortnightly talks held in various locations across the UK.

💬 What Happens at Man Down?
Every other Monday at 7 PM, men are invited to share and discuss their mental health in a supportive group setting. By listening to one another and sharing our stories, we work together to dismantle the stigma around emotional expression. We prioritize confidentiality and non-judgment in every meeting. Social meet-ups and online peer support groups are also available for participants of our face-to-face sessions.

💬 How Does the Evening Begin?
Arrive anytime between 6:45 PM and 7 PM, where you’ll be greeted by facilitators and introduced to fellow attendees. We realize that stepping into a new environment can be daunting, but rest assured, everyone here has been in your shoes and will warmly welcome you!

💬 How Does the Meeting Play Out?
At 7 PM, the meeting commences with an introduction about Man Down. You'll learn about upcoming social events and our online space for keeping connected between gatherings. It’s a safe environment for open dialogue as we honor confidentiality and a non-judgmental approach.

💬 Do I Have to Talk/Share My Experience?
Absolutely not! Participation is entirely voluntary. You’re welcome to simply listen and absorb the conversation until you feel comfortable sharing your own experiences.

💬 Do I Need to Pre-register?
No registration is necessary—just show up!

💬 Do I Have to Pay to Attend?
Nope! All costs are generously covered by Man Down, a Community Interest Company, thanks to wonderful fundraising efforts and grants.

💬 What About Drinks?
We provide tea, coffee, and water during the sessions.

💬 Does Man Down Offer Professional Help?
While we don't provide professional therapy, we aim to foster an understanding of mental health through conversation. Our sessions are facilitated by volunteers, not by licensed professionals. However, we are happy to share resources and refer you to appropriate services available across the UK.

💬 Feeling Struggling?
If you’re in crisis, please seek professional help. Many individuals find value in our supportive conversations, which can help clarify feelings, build a supportive network, and reaffirm that you're not alone.

💬 Anxious About Attending?
It’s completely normal to feel anxious about new experiences! Many attendees share that the first step through the door was challenging, but we're here for you when you're ready. 🙌
