£500 funds new fire door in Cosby
Paul Hodges, Landlord of The Bulls Head pub in Cosby nominated his local community library to gain much needed funding when he heard about the We Got This campaign via Everards.
Eric Waweru nominated a new project aptly named ‘Man Monday’ for his local community.
Man Monday is a new initiative by the Centre Project targeted at men enabling them to meet and share their experiences and challenges to develop a support network and a sense of purpose, direction and fulfilment.
The project will benefit men, mainly aged between 25-65 years and aims to support 25-30 men
The project will have a lasting effect in the community by helping to address the stigma about men and mental health by providing a platform for them to talk and share openly about mental health issues and will continue to make a difference long after the funding has ended.
The Centre Project is a local charity that has been supporting city residents since 1996. Last year over 5,700 used the service and 70% of whom were men.
