Volunteer

We would love to hear from people happy to volunteer their time to help strengthen what Man Alive Project already does. If you could lead a walk, run a sports session or have an idea for an activity that other men might be interested in, then get in touch. 

Our plan is for the project to develop through the skills, interests and vision of the people who come to the sessions. Who knows where that will take us!

Doing something for others helps you develop new skills, regain old ones, raises your self-esteem and helps you make connections with others. Sounds like a win for everybody!

Additional Info

When did it become normal to say NO to anything new? 

How about saying yes, for a change! 

Saying NO is a bad habit. Saying YES can change your life! (for the better) 

Joining one of our activities might just be the best decision you’ve made this year!

Turning up is the hard part! After that it’s plain sailing: great walks, brilliant activities, friendly blokes & good conversation.

Give us a try or get in touch for more details.
