So what is HELPU’s Cardiff Men’s Space at Llanrumney Hall?

It’s a relaxed space for men to talk, listen, or just sit and be around others — no pressure to share + no judgement.
You don’t need to be “in crisis”. It might be work stress, money worries, family stuff, health, football… whatever!
Or you might just fancy getting out of the house and having a chat. It all good!
If you’re feeling a bit isolated, stressed, or just want a change of scene, come along for a free cuppa ☕
No cost. Open to men of all ages. No booking needed. Just turn up and come as you are!

Meets every over Tuesday eve from 7-9 at Llanrumney Hall, Cardiff

Working in a construction trade in Wales?
Your story could help save a life
Call-out: Share your experience. Help save lives.
Have you worked in construction in Wales and struggled with your mental health? That might include suicidal thoughts, feeling overwhelmed, or reaching a point where things felt too much.
HelpuCymru is working with CITB and Su***de Prevention and Self-harm, NHS Wales on a new film for the construction industry.
We’re looking for people who are willing to be on camera, talking honestly about their experiences.
This film is about:
* Struggling while working in construction
* Suicidal thoughts or dark periods
* What helped — or what you wish had been different
* The difference it makes when someone notices and listens
You don’t need a perfect story. Just a real one.
Taking part is voluntary and handled with care. Support will be available throughout.
If you’re interested or want to know more, get in touch confidentially: hello@helpu.org.uk
Help someone else feel less alone — or even save a life.

Ydych chi’n gweithio yn y diwydiant adeiladu yng Nghymru? Gallai eich stori helpu i achub bywyd
Galwad: Rhannwch eich profiad. Helpwch i achub bywydau.
Ydych chi wedi gweithio ym maes adeiladu yng Nghymru ac wedi cael trafferth gyda’ch iechyd meddwl?
Gallai hynny gynnwys meddyliau hunanladdol, teimlo dan bwysau, neu gyrraedd pwynt lle roedd popeth yn teimlo’n ormod.
Mae Helpu ac Auntie Margaret yn gweithio gyda CITB a Atal Hunanladdiad a Hunan-niweidio, GIG Cymru ar ffilm newydd ar gyfer y diwydiant adeiladu.
Rydym yn chwilio am bobl sy’n fodlon bod ar gamera, yn siarad yn onest am eu profiadau.
Mae’r ffilm hon yn ymwneud â:
* Cael trafferth wrth weithio ym maes adeiladu
* Meddyliau hunanladdol neu gyfnodau tywyll
* Beth helpodd — neu beth fyddech wedi dymuno bod yn wahanol
* Y gwahaniaeth mae’n ei wneud pan fydd rhywun yn sylwi ac yn gwrando
Does dim angen stori berffaith. Dim ond stori wir.
Mae cymryd rhan yn wirfoddol ac yn cael ei drin yn ofalus. Bydd cymorth ar gael drwy’r broses.
Os oes gennych ddiddordeb neu os hoffech wybod mwy, cysylltwch yn gyfrinachol:hello@helpu.org.uk
Helpwch rywun arall i deimlo llai ar ei ben ei hun — neu hyd yn oed achub bywyd.

Blue Monday isn’t real.
But how you feel is.

“Blue Monday” was created for a marketing campaign, not by mental health professionals. There’s no scientific evidence that one day in January is the most depressing of the year.

What is real?
• In Wales, around 3 in 4 su***des are men
• Men are less likely to seek help, and more likely to struggle in silence
• Mental health doesn’t follow a calendar

➡ If today feels heavy for you, that matters.
➡ If it doesn’t, that matters too.

but don't let a marketing scam dictate this day for you.
