Men’s Wellbeing Workshops – 2 of 3 – Masculinities and seeking support

We’re delighted to be hosting this series of 3 workshops delivered by Beyond Equality with the support of the Movember Foundation.

This second workshop looks at Masculinities and seeking support.

Looking at how masculinities can inhibit or encourage us to seek help or support in a particular way, we will explore the ways in which we talk to one another and how we can – both individually and together – build more supportive structures and communities.
● Looking at how we can build our social networks of support that encourage  self-care and help-seeking
● Exploring how we can build personal trust and overcome discomfort to be able to seek help
● Reflecting upon the ‘armour’ or ‘masks’ we feel the need to wear to protect ourselves in the conversation around mental wellbeing.

These workshops are for men who are registered to use our services – or are eligible to (living in East London or getting your HIV treatment at an East London clinic.  These workshops are also open to Food Chain clients.  Some light snacks and hot drinks will be provided.

If travel or care costs are a barrier to taking part, let us know in advance. Support is available to Positive East clients with no recourse to public funds, or experiencing a gap in benefits or income.  For more information and to book your place, please contact Nick on nick.maxwell@positiveeast.org.uk
