🎣 Men to Talk - Fishing for well-being at Manor Farm Lake in Lower Caldecotte


Time: 13:00 - 15:00 Price: Β£5.00

πŸ—£ A Safe Space for Men to Talk
β€˜For Men To Talk’ is a support group for men dealing with anxiety, depression, and grief. The fishing meetings give men a chance to talk openly with others who understand. Whether they share their struggles or simply enjoy the quiet company of others, they are never alone.

Casting lines and building connections: β€˜For Men To Talk and Fish’ in 2025 In 2025, β€˜For Men To Talk’ will continue their popular β€˜For Men To Talk and Fish’ meetings at Manor Farm Lakes in Lower Caldecote. These sessions are more than just fishingβ€”they’re a lifeline...

🎣 The Mental Health Benefits of Fishing
Fishing is more than just a hobby. It helps men step away from their busy lives and relax. The slow, steady process of fishingβ€”casting a line, waiting, and focusing on the waterβ€”can be very calming. It helps lower stress and gives men time to clear their minds.
Spending time outdoors is also important for mental health. Being in nature can improve mood, reduce anxiety, and boost overall well-being. Fishing provides a chance to breathe fresh air, enjoy quiet moments, and feel a sense of achievement.

WHAT'S INCLUDED?
A fully qualified facilitator and level 2 angling coach with over 30 years of angling experience. They will also provide fishing tackle, bait, etc. Please note that a rod licence to fish will be provided.

🎟 TICKET PRICE - £5
β€˜For Men To Talk’ ask for a non-refundable contribution amount of Β£5 per meeting.
Required attendees: 8 men. Tickets can be booked via the event link.
