Mind the Men - Suicide Prevention Peer Support Group

About Us

MindtheMen was started in memory of Grant Macdonald who we lost to suicide in 2018.

The clubs are safe places where men (18+) are able to talk about their challenges with other men in a non-clinical setting. True peer to peer support.

Sadly suicide is the biggest killer of men under 50 in Scotland.

In 2018 75% of people who died by suicide were men with many never being able to talk about how they were feeling.

MindtheMen’s aim is to reduce male suicide by providing an environment where talking is the first step to realising that there are other options.

Our clubs are free of charge and meet every Monday night from 7pm until 9pm. Just come along on the night, you will be made very welcome.

Outside of a Monday night MindtheMen have also been able to provide our men with the following activities: walking group, football team, art tuition, golf tournament, first aid, mindfulness, yoga and CBT.

All of our facilitators have undertaken suicide awareness training.
