The Adult Mental Health and Wellbeing Team (Essex County Council) runs Men4Mental Health courses regularly throughout the year. It is for any man feeling low, experiencing a lack of motivation, loss of direction, struggling in their relationships or struggling in any other way with their mental health. We accept self-referrals but if you are a professional / organisation wanting to make a referral on behalf of the person, please call our duty line 0333 032 2958 or email MH.Wellbeingteam@essex.gov.uk to discuss/request a referral form.

Men can either attend in person or virtually. If wanting to join virtually, they can attend the session using their mobile/laptop/computer/tablet from the comfort of their own home and join with members at the in-person session.

The in-person session will be held at The Mulberry Tree Family Centre, High St, Colchester, CO1 1JH

New programmes start throughout the year. The location of each cohort is decided based on the waiting list and where the majority of men live. So we hold it wherever the most demand is at the time. This is a hybrid group however so you can join online as well.
