You don't need us to tell you that male suicide is an issue. You don't need us to tell you the importance of looking after your health and wellbeing. You don't need us to tell you that in world full of people, many are lonely and isolated. You certainly don't need us to tell you that mental health difficulties are the most common causes of illness.
Why did we start Stand Tall?
We wanted to do something about the mental health burden in our community that isn't just posting content or motivational quotes. In the winter of 2022, 2 dads (a MH nurse, the other a CrossFit and weightlifting coach) from Barry South Wales were watching their kids play football. We had a thought; 'why don't we combine the benefits of lifting weights and the benefits of learning about mental health and wellbeing'. So, we did. This is why we set up Stand Tall, a not for profit social enterprise.
We podcast and we blog. Bust most importantly we are continuing to develop our service and are currently running our unique 8 week 'Strength and Wellbeing' course for guys who are struggling and could benefit from connection, exercise and learning about wellbeing in a supportive stigma free environment.
Please help support a grassroots project with men's mental health at its heart. We don't have bottomless pockets or bags of endless funding. We are just 2 local guys trying to leave a mark. Help us continue our courses and support for men. Help us continue us to produce and develop our content/podcast/blog. Help us help the sons, brothers and fathers in our community.
If you want to know more about what we do reach out and contact us. If you want to know exactly where the money goes just ask.
