The Side Kick Project

  • Maria Hopwood

It’s time to grab men’s mental health by the balls with the power of distraction. My challenge was to get men to talk about mental health. That’s never easy. The project will set up 4 monthly courses: Woodwork, Culinary, 5-a-side sports and DJ lessons. Providing a platform for men to learn a skill and become part of a supportive community. The idea is for men to see their emotional progress from distraction with the course programme. Positive distraction leads to self-awareness and mental clarity.
