Charitable Work
As a collective we are committed to supporting our local communities and whilst our time is precious and limited, we know that together we are stronger and therefore always strive to help not for profit projects where we can. Here are some of the ways in which we volunteer our time to support others to shine.

Men Walking & Talking (Penrith)
Facilitated by Chris, this group provides an opportunity for men to take their first step towards showing up for themselves. It also aims to provide a safe container where men can walk and talk and share what they feel without any judgement. It includes meeting others with similar or different lived experiences and their walks take place weekly. For further information please click here to find out more.
Men Who Talk
Chris is also a facilitator for this Men’s mental health online peer support group which provides a social and supportive space for all men to talk about what’s on their mind. It is also an opportunity for men to receive support from other men and to share their own experiences or learn from others. It is free to join and was founded in recognition of the need to engage men in the UK more with support services. Click here to find out more about Men Who Talk.

We thoroughly enjoy taking to the high street of Carlisle to help lift up the hearts of members of the public there, as part of our Lifting Up and Lightening The Hearts of our Locals project for Give a Day To The City. To find out more about Give a Day To The City click here.
