Man Time

ManTime is a Stone-based support group dedicated to creating a safe space for men facing various challenges, including depression, anxiety, and substance dependency. Our goal is to offer a supportive environment where men can share their experiences and find solace and guidance.

Every other week, Man Time hosts its face-to-face meetings at a central location in Stone, providing a warm and friendly atmosphere for all. These regular gatherings offer a safe and comfortable space for members to engage in open conversations, share their experiences, and find support on issues that matter to them. It’s a time for connection, understanding, and mutual support, where every voice is heard, and every story is valued.

They deliver a growing range of mental health services that are based around the individual and changing needs of people living, working and studying in North Staffordshire and the surrounding area.

Andy's Man Club Stoke On Trent

ANDYSMANCLUB are a men’s suicide prevention charity, offering free to attend peer-to-peer support groups across the United Kingdom and online. We want to end the stigma surrounding men’s mental health and help men through the power of conversation. #ITSOKAYTOTALK

Men Rebuilding Men

Men Rebuilding Men is a peer-led community focused on creating safe, informal spaces where men can support one another through honest connection. The group encourages open conversation — whether that means talking, listening, or simply being present — alongside sharing struggles, celebrating wins, and learning healthier ways to cope with life’s pressures. Through online discussion and real-world meet-ups such as walks or coffee, Men Rebuilding Men helps reduce isolation and challenges the stigma that often stops men from opening up. There is no judgement, no pressure, and no toxic “man up” culture; the emphasis is on belonging, understanding, and reminding men that they are not alone, even if they’re not in crisis.

The Stoke Blokes

The Stoke Blokes are a Mens Mental Health support group for men across Stoke on Trent held at Affordable Foods, Blurton. They provide opportunities for people to meet fortnightly to talk, have a brew and support mental health
