Groups

At MensCraft, groups are facilitated spaces for activities, conversation, reflection and peer support. Groups use facilitation rather than instruction to guide the process, supporting the group in setting and achieving their own goals.

Pit Stops

Pit Stops brings men together through activities and conversation to build friendship, connection and a sense of belonging. They are free, informal, weekly drop-in groups for men aged 18 and over.

GRIPS

Group Re-Integration through Peer Support (GRIPS) is a weekly informal gathering of men with experience of the criminal justice system. We empower one another through honesty, solidarity, non-judgement and respect.


GRIPS is open to men aged 18 and over with experience of the criminal justice system who have been referred to MensCraft’s Contact Service. You must be a current or former service-user to attend.

Sustain

Sustain is a weekly peer support group for men who have experienced suicidal thoughts or are suicide survivors. It offers a calm, respectful space where men can connect with others who understand something of what they have been through. Sustain is facilitated by trained MensCraft staff who have experience supporting men through periods of crisis. It is open to men aged 18 and over who have been referred to MensCraft’s Contact Service. You must be a current or former service-user to attend.

Fathers' groups

Join Jules and other fathers for real talk about the highs and lows (and everything in between) of parenting. Whether you live with or apart from your kids, no matter what stage of the parenting journey you’re at, it can help to be with others to share experiences, tips and tricks for fatherhood.
