About Us
Creating space for real conversations
Who We Are & How We Began
We formed our support group in August 2023, concerned about the increase in suicides taking place in Moray, having recently lost friends to suicide.
Initially we begun the group on Facebook, to open an avenue for men to be able to talk privately and anonymously should they wish and share their concerns worries. We provide a non-judgemental environment, where men can ask for advice, share experiences and connect and help each other wherever possible. Our group is a private group for men only across Moray and beyond, we are not professionals just local men eager to help and support other men by listening, talking and connecting people to the most suitable organisation for their needs.
OUR VALUES
The Foundation of Our Community
Our Growth
The Path of Our Expansion Since 2023
We now have over 900 group members (941). We have members from 10 local towns and cities across Moray. We meet every second Sunday at our “Drop-In Sessions” in the Annex at the New Elgin Hall, with approximately 10-12 guys attending per session. We have regular Walk & Talk sessions and have also tried activities such as exercise classes, dips in the sea, ten pin bowling nights.
Our group is predominantly an interactive group on Facebook where members can post anonymously or be part of the group chats within the page, covering several topics such as bereavement, addiction, relationship worries, financial worries. There are sections for ex-military/veterans, new dads, and general health and wellbeing.
We have recently become a constituted group and have an elected Committee including a Chair, Vice Chairman, Treasurer, and Secretary.
