A CHAT WITH: Ben Akers on Talk Club & Mental Health
Show Notes

Duke is joined by Ben Akers from Talk Club, which is a talking and listening club for men. Duke and Ben discuss mental health & football and the launch of Talk Club Bristol Rovers.

Talk Club Bristol Rovers

The groups are relaxed, informal, and non-judgemental - a place where men can simply go in and get off their chest what's been happening in their week. This is part of a behaviour-changing movement aimed at getting men to talk more openly about their thoughts, feelings, worries and day-to-day gripes.

We have only just launched so stand by for further details but if you are interested then please join the private and confidential Facebook and/or WhatsApp groups.
