Men’s Online Peer Support

As men, it can be very hard to talk about our feelings, especially with the societal stigma about men behaving in a certain way.

So, why not come along to our friendly, non-judgemental, supportive peer support group where you can feel safe in sharing and talking about things, as well as getting the opportunity to meet other people too.

Men’s Peer Support Group – Leatherhead

As men, it can be very difficult to talk about our feelings and our mental health due to the stigma of a man’s role in society. However, we want to combat that and are offering a men’s only peer support group running on a weekly basis in Leatherhead. Come along to the group where you will be able to meet and connect with other men, who may be experiencing similar difficulties and are all in the position of seeking support, advice and wanting to connect with like-minded people. There’s no pressure to share your own personal situation or experiences if you don’t want to, but you may just benefit from meeting others and forming connections that you may never have thought about before. Contact us now to book a place!
