The Man Walk
Regular walks where men get moving, talk and make mates. A welcoming way to connect, with no need to explain a personal issue.
Local walk leaders, safe routes and times that fit the site.
WORKFORCE PARTNERSHIPS
In good
company.
On site. Beyond the shift.
Give the men in your workforce more ways to connect, with a walk, a place at a Table or someone to talk things through with.

BUILT AROUND YOUR WORKFORCE
Different sites.
Different shifts.
Room to connect.
When your people work across sites, rosters and time away from home, a good idea needs to fit the working day.
We’re looking to work with employers with large, predominantly male workforces who want to make connection and support easier to reach.
The starting point is practical: listen to the workforce, understand what’s already available and design a pilot around one site. What we learn there can inform decisions about other locations.
See how a partnership could workTHE PROPOSED OFFER
Three ways in.
Men choose what suits them.
Bring complementary services together through one point of contact. There’s no set order and no expectation to take part in all three.
The Men’s Table
The same men meeting monthly over a meal, sharing life’s highs and lows. A place to listen, be heard and build friendships over time.
An introduction first, then the choice to join an ongoing Table.
Mentoring Men
Free one-to-one life mentorship for men aged 18+, with a trained volunteer. Someone to listen and help a man work through life on his own terms.
Application, intake and suitability checks before a mentor match.
This is a proposed partnership model. Delivery and partner involvement would be agreed for each site. Each service retains its own joining process and safeguards.
ONE POINT OF CONTACT
Make it easier
to find a way in.
A dedicated program manager would coordinate the pilot, helping workers find the right service and giving your team a clear contact.
For the men on site
Help with enquiries, introductions and follow-up, with their agreement. Participation stays voluntary.
For your organisation
Coordination of site arrangements, partner delivery, communications and agreed reporting.
Around the roster
Plan contact hours, cover and continuity during time away with the partners before delivery begins.
WHAT YOUR ORGANISATION COULD FUND
Start at one site.
Learn before going further.
A staged approach gives your team a clear decision at each point. A design phase does not commit you to a full pilot or a wider rollout.
- DESIGN & PREPARATION
Listen and make a plan.
Work with your people to understand the site, rosters, existing support and barriers to taking part. Agree the delivery model, safeguards and measures of success.
You receive: site findings, a delivery and referral plan, clear responsibilities and a recommendation to proceed, refine, pause or stop.
- OPTIONAL SITE PILOT
Put the plan into practice.
A proposed 12-month pilot would bring the services together at the chosen site, with program coordination, local communications and ongoing feedback.
A separate decision: confirm scope, partner capacity, timing and site arrangements before delivery.
- REVIEW & NEXT STEPS
Decide what comes next.
Look at who takes part, who returns, what workers find useful and whether the arrangements work around their rosters.
For a multi-site employer: use the findings to decide whether to continue, adapt or explore another location. Expansion is agreed, not automatic.
BEYOND A SINGLE EVENT
An invitation men
can keep coming back to.
A launch can introduce the people behind the services and make the first step familiar. International Men’s Day could be an announcement or launch moment, if the site and partners are ready.
The work continues afterwards: regular walks, monthly Tables and ongoing mentorship, supported by clear site communications.
TRUST COMES FIRST
Work alongside
the support already there.
This is a voluntary, non-clinical offer. It would sit alongside your existing EAP, medical, safety and specialist services. Mentorship is not therapy or crisis care.
Before a pilot starts, we would agree consent, confidentiality limits, referrals, escalation and reporting. Personal disclosures and individual participation data should not be used for performance management.
Reporting should help everyone understand access, experience and what needs to improve, without identifying individual workers. Outcomes would be evaluated, not promised.
THE FIRST DECISION
Design one site.
Decide what follows.
The proposal starts with an indicative six-week design phase: listen to workers, map existing support and referral pathways, and test how the three services could fit rosters and site life.
The resulting site decision pack would set out consultation findings, delivery options, responsibilities, safeguards and measures of usefulness. It would support a separate decision about a possible 12-month pilot before any wider rollout.
