Funding will support the new Men’s Group at Altens CommunityCentre by providing laptops for digital skills support, games for social interaction and exercise equipment for volunteer-led fitness sessions.
“Altens Community Centre Men's Group will provide a space for men to meet up to chat over a tea/coffee, play games, listen to music ,improve IT skills etc. This will be a non-judgmental space that helps overcome social isolation and improve mental health. It will offer a supportive community where men can share their experiences and challenges, counter acting the pressures that often discourage male vulnerability, helping men lead happier, healthier and more connected lives.”
