💚 WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY – LIVED EXPERIENCES HEARD 💚

Today, for World Mental Health Day, we want to celebrate this year’s theme: Lived Experiences Heard: Real Voices, Real Change

At Men Talk, WALK and TALK, We Evolve Project and Breaking Cycles CIC we believe that sometimes the most powerful support comes from people who have been there themselves.

Maj, Stuart William Craig and Philip Wade have their own lived experiences of mental health struggles. They understand that life isn’t always easy, that everyone has their battles, and that sometimes just having someone who genuinely understands can make all the difference.

💚 That’s what makes them brilliant at what they do.

They don’t just talk about mental health from a book or a classroom. They understand the importance of creating safe spaces where people can open up, feel listened to, share their experiences and realise they’re not alone.

Whether it’s through walking,cycling,talking, coming together as men, or using physical activity to support our wellbeing, the message is always the same: you don’t have to face life’s challenges on your own.

There’s no judgement, no pressure to talk, and no expectation to have all the answers. Sometimes it’s about having a laugh, getting outside, meeting new people, or simply knowing there’s someone there who cares.

Our lived experiences don’t have to define us. They can help us connect with others, understand their struggles and turn some of our hardest moments into something positive.

A massive thank you to everyone who supports what we do, everyone who shows up, and everyone who has the courage to share their story. ❤️

🤝 Real people. Real experiences. Real conversations.

💚 You are not alone. There is always someone willing to listen.

Another brilliant evening out with The Manchester College – King’s Trust programme! 🥾🌄

Tonight, we took a group of young people from Coldwell Activity Centre - Group Accommodation on a walk towards The Doorway to Pendle, near Boulsworth Hill.

Even though we were walking in the dark, the group were amazed by the beautiful countryside and managed to capture plenty of photos along the way 📸. There were some great conversations, lots of laughs, and it was a perfect evening to get out and enjoy the outdoors.

They were a fantastic group of very polite young people, and it was brilliant to see how much they appreciated and enjoyed our beautiful countryside. ❤️🌳

A huge thank you to Coldwell Activity Centre - Group for giving us another fantastic opportunity to get out walking with the young people.

Walk. Talk. Connect. 🥾💬❤️

✨ FAMILY GLOW WALK ✨

Our annual Glow Walk is on Friday 13th November, which falls on Children in Need night. This time, we wanted to use the occasion to do something special for children and families in our own community. ❤️

We’ll be walking the Pendle Sculpture Trail and raising money for Colne Open Door Centre.

Open Door supports local families with free meals for children, food parcels, baby essentials and practical support when things get tough. They meet parents every day who are struggling to make ends meet and worrying about how they’ll put food on the table.

Every donation we raise will help keep that support available for families who need it. 🙏

🌟 The event is completely FREE!
There’s no need to register — just turn up.
If you’d like to make a donation on the evening, you can, but there’s absolutely no pressure.

It’s a chance to get out together, have a chat, enjoy the walk and raise a few quid for a local charity doing some really important work. 💛

🎉 And we’ll have some treats for the kids too! 😀

✨ Bring your glow sticks
🔦 Bring a torch
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Bring the family
👫 Bring your friends
❤️ And help us support local families

📍 Meet: Barley Picnic Site, BB12 9JX
⏰ Time: 6:30pm
📅 Friday 13th November

No registration. No cost. Just turn up and join us!

Let’s light up Pendle and make a difference together. ✨❤️

🥾🏔️ CRIB GOCH ADVENTURE! 🏔️🥾

On Sunday, we took on Crib Goch! 😍

What an absolutely amazing route! It was challenging, exhilarating and definitely scary at times 😬😂 — but we loved every single second of it!

The views were incredible, the scrambling was brilliant, and it was one of those adventures that pushes you outside your comfort zone and leaves you with memories you'll never forget.

A massive well done to everyone who took part! 💪👏

Another adventure ticked off the list! 🥾⛰️
