Before you fill in the application form to volunteer as a MenWalkTalk walk leader, I want to share a bit about what’s involved and how we can support you in getting started.

Starting a walk in your local area takes effort, motivation, and a real connection with your community. When I launched the very first MenWalkTalk walk in Littlehampton, I put up posters in barbers, supermarkets, the job centre, GP surgeries—anywhere that could help spread the word. I also shared posts on social media, in local groups, and emailed friends and colleagues asking for their help. After all that, 5 men showed up for that first walk. It was a small but important start.

Nearly 5 years later, MenWalkTalk has grown to reach men across the UK and even overseas. However, as a charity with limited resources, we depend on committed volunteers like you to spread the word locally and build new walks.

Here’s how we’ll support you:

We’ll promote your walk on our social media channels, website events calendar, and our Heylo app.
We’ll provide you with a press release to share with local newspapers, plus marketing materials to help you advertise the walk.
We’ll fund your training as a Mental Health First Aider, provide a MenWalkTalk uniform, and supply a first aid kit.
As a volunteer, you’ll also have access to our Employee Assistance Programme for support.

You’ll be part of an amazing charity, doing something so important—giving men a safe space to open up, connect, and improve their mental wellbeing. Your involvement will make a real difference to their lives. However, it’s important to know that your success will depend on your commitment to promoting the walk in your local area. You’ll need to take an active role in spreading the word within your community to get people involved.

If you’re ready to make a positive impact, complete the form, and we’ll be in touch to guide you through the next steps.

Thanks again for your interest and for being part of the MenWalkTalk movement.

Best regards,

Matt

Founder & CEO, MenWalkTalk
