DESCRIPTION:What if one story could change your life – or save it? \nToo many men struggle with their mental health. Some stay silent. Others open up\, sharing their experiences and seeking a better life. Join us for an evening of powerful real-life stories\, live interviews\, inspiring talks\, and live music\, designed to spark honest conversations about mental health. Tackling challenges such as depression\, anxiety\, and addiction\, we prove that talking about mental health isn’t a sign of weakness – it’s a sign of strength. \nSpecial Guests:\n• Ben Smith\, the inspirational endurance athlete shares his experience battling bullying and depression to complete 401 marathons in 401 days.\n• Will Castle presents his film ‘Heirlooms’ a short film about the challenges faced by those who have been bereaved by suicide.\n• John Houston\, co-founder of The Cornermen at The South Moreton Boxing Club\, talks about the men’s mental health and suicide prevention charity.\n• Jeff Moore shares his experience battling depression including his big\, hairy\, audacious goals!\n• Live Music from The Cornermen. \nHonest\, moving\, and ultimately uplifting\, this event is for everyone. Join us and be part of the conversation. \nSuitable for ages 18+ \nDuration: 2.5 hours
