Our Mission for 2025

This year, we're taking action to reshape the narrative around men's mental health. We're not simply a group; we’re a movement.

We're committed to amplifying the importance of mental wellness, establishing a culture of open and authentic communication, and breaking free from the stigma that holds men back. As a social club, we provide opportunities for men to connect, share their stories, and support one another through shared adventures and events.

Expect thrilling activities like paintballing, go-karting, and five-a-side football, alongside relaxing beach walks and invigorating fitness sessions.

We'll even be hosting a ping pong competition. We strive to equip men with the tools to prioritise their mental well-being and make a tangible impact on their lives and the lives of others.

Community Care Package

A company committed to improving the well-being of the Teesside community is making a significant contribution to local organisations such as the "Teesside Empowerment Group." By donating essential toiletries, beauty products, and cleaning supplies, they are directly addressing the challenges posed by the living wage crisis and deprivation in Middlesbrough and the wider Teesside region.

These generous donations provide crucial support to individuals and families facing financial hardship, ensuring access to basic necessities that promote hygiene, self-esteem, and overall quality of life. The "Teesside Empowerment Group" plays a vital role in distributing these resources and empowering individuals to overcome the challenges they face.

For more information or to arrange a collection/drop-off, Email: TeessideEG@gmail.com or text “Care Package” to 0787 1574104

Together, we can make a tangible difference in the lives of those affected by the living wage crisis and deprivation in our community.

"You're not just another person online; you're a whole universe in one soul."
- Remember that your uniqueness matters, both online and in real life.
"Self-care is not a luxury; it is a necessity."
- Make your mental health a priority by engaging in self-care and seeking support when needed.

About our group

The Teesside Men's Group is all about boosting blokes' wellbeing. We're building a strong community where guys can share their experiences and get some decent advice. We know that sometimes it's tough for men to talk about their mental health, and we also know that a good diet makes a difference. So, we're tackling both. We'll be running some events, talks, and sessions to help guys spot the signs of mental health issues, understand what can affect it, and find out what help's out there. We'll also be showing how eating right can make a real difference. We're especially keen to get guys from all backgrounds involved, because we know some lads face extra hurdles when it comes to getting support.
