🚨 68. THAT’S ALL WE NEED. 🚨

We’ve just checked the numbers…

The Back & Forth podcast is now only 68 downloads away from 10,000.

TEN THOUSAND. 🤯

When we started sitting around a microphone talking about the stuff blokes don’t always talk about, we genuinely had no idea where it would go.

And now we’re this close.

So… fancy helping us get there?

🎧 If you’ve never listened before — give an episode a go.

🔁 If you already listen — share the podcast with a mate.

💙 And if you’ve been listening since the early days — thank you. You’ve helped get us here.

68 downloads to go.

Can we hit 10,000 tonight? 👀

NEW EPISODE OUT NOW!

Let’s see what this community can do.

Walk. Talk. Support. Repeat.

There’s nothing powerful about making someone feel small. 🤍 ♥️. People who deliberately use another person's insecurities against them reveal far more about their own character than anyone else's. Real strength is making people feel safe, respected, and valued—not wounded.🌿✨

Some things change you in ways nobody can see. Trauma has a way of creeping into your everyday life, affecting your body, your mind, your confidence and the things you once took for granted.

But if there’s one thing I know about me, it’s this:

I’ll let nothing beat me. Never have and never will.

I might have days where I struggle. Days where my body reminds me of everything I’ve been through. Days where I have to slow down and find my strength again.

But broken? No.

I’m still here, fighting, still standing strong.

And whatever comes next… it doesn’t get to decide who I am because that's up to me only💜 e

🎉 HUGE NEWS! 🎉

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that our in-person women’s peer support sessions have been funded by Warwickshire County Council for another year!

This means that for another year, we can continue creating a safe space for women across Warwickshire who have experienced domestic abuse - a place where they can come together, be heard, connect with others who truly understand, and realise that they are not alone.

So many women leave abuse carrying experiences that can feel impossible to explain to people who haven't lived through them. Peer support can be incredibly powerful because sometimes you don't need someone to explain it - you just need someone who gets it. 💜

This funding means we can continue providing those opportunities for connection, support and community when women may otherwise feel completely isolated.

A massive thank you to the councillors who supported our funding:

💜 Yousef for Rugby – Hillmorton
💜 Councillor Sarah Feeney - Benn
💜 Cllr Dan Glover, New Bilton and Overslade - Rugby

Your support is helping us continue this work and, most importantly, helping women know that they don't have to navigate the aftermath of abuse alone.

One year more. More connection. More support. More women reminded that they are not alone. 💜

Strangulation is never “just an argument.”

If someone puts their hands around your neck, they are showing a willingness to use extreme violence and put your life at risk. Someone who can strangle you and make you fear for your life is dangerous and it is not your fault.

If this is happening to you, please don’t wait for it to get worse. Get out if you can do so safely, and reach out for help. You deserve to be safe, loved and free from fear.

💜 You are not alone. You are not to blame. Help is available.

our Chairman Carey Baxter spoke to UTV about mens experience of domestic abuse, and the new Police Service of Northern Ireland Awareness Campaign. This campaign is a result of multiple meetings between Mens Alliance and the PSNI during 2025, during which we highlighted the absence of male victims in their Socials, and the need to engage with men in a meaningful and balanced way.

We would encourage all men to reach out, speak to the Police, if you would like some help in doing that please let us know, we have Legal Support available, and can offer 121 support. Uniquely as a Peer Support Network of men supporting men, we are all highly qualified in this area, because we have all been there too, so really do understand.

You can also join our private online MANi Support Group (NI) where you can speak to other men, and seek help, anonymously.

We've got your back.
