We Evolve Project

27/01/2026

This Thursday we’re doing something a little different at our group.

We have a cooking class with Chef Dan 👨‍🍳 who will be cooking up a storm with a step-by-step tutorial 😋

Our Men’s session will run as normal from 6:15pm. If you want to learn to cook a proper curry, join Chef Dan at 5:00pm at Hodge House Community Centre.

The idea is to introduce cooking at home to the guys using fresh ingredients, teaching how to cook and save loads of money, better than takeaways and processed foods.

Benefits of cooking at home**:

Healthier meals with control over ingredients and portions

Cost savings compared to takeaway or pre-made meals

Skills that boost independence and confidence

Family or social bonding around shared meals

Routine and structure that can support mental wellbeing

Therapeutic benefits**:

Cooking can provide a calming, focused activity that reduces stress

Creates a sense of achievement and purpose
Opportunity to practice mindfulness and problem-solving in a practical setting

Positive social connection, reducing isolation and boosting mood

See you on Thursday 🙂

Ps it's definitely 5pm start for the cooking class not 5.30pm as it states on the poster.

Men Talk We Evolve Project

10/09/2025

Today is World Su***de Prevention Day. At Men Talk, we understand that men’s mental health can be quiet, but the impact is loud. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or alone, you’re not alone.

Reach out to someone you trust, join a walk and talk, or simply take a moment for yourself today. Small steps matter, and asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

We’re here to listen, support, and walk with you.

Important note:

Our Men Talk session tomorrow (Thursday 11th) is at Hodge House Community Centre, starting at 6:00 pm. All men are welcome to join for conversation, connection, and practical tips in a supportive, non-judgmental space. Food and drinks provided.

WALK and TALK We Evolve Project Evolve - Community Wellbeing

04/09/2025

We’ve been building a family, not just a group, over the past year with Men Talk. It’s grown into a space where guys feel seen, heard, and supported – from sharing worries to celebrating small wins. We’ve laughed together, lifted each other up through tough times, and shown up for one another. That sense of belonging is what keeps us going.

Now we’re celebrating one year on the 25th, and you’re all invited to join us for a relaxed, friendly gathering. It’s open to all men from the community, so bring friends and supporters along. You will have a chance to chat and meet the facilitators, with lots of tasty food and treats, a laid-back, down-to-earth vibe, and plenty of laughs and good chats.

Why pop by? To celebrate our growing family, share what’s been working and what we’re planning next, and meet people who value support, conversation, and a bit of humour.

Date: Thursday 25th September
Time: 6-8pm
Place: Hodge House Community Centre
