Our next local charity we are raising funds for is Mantalk. A phenomenal charity making a big difference in the lives of our locals.

Here is more info on Mantalk:

M.A.N.T.A.L.K is a men’s mental-health and su***de-awareness charity based in Blairgowrie, set up by local men who wanted to do something practical to support other men in their community.

What MANTALK does
Their main aim is to get men talking, particularly men who might otherwise keep problems and feelings to themselves. They provide a relaxed, confidential and non-judgemental environment where men can come along whether they're struggling with their mental health or simply want some company and a reason to get out.

They organise:

Weekly group nights – currently Tuesday evenings at 6:30pm at Wellmeadow Boxing Club.

Outdoor activities and adventures, including hillwalking and trips such as Ben Nevis.

Social activities designed to give men something positive to look forward to and help build friendships and confidence.

An important part of their approach is that you don't have to be suicidal, have a mental-health problem, or even talk about anything personal to attend. The idea is to make that first step as easy as possible and provide a place where people can meet others without judgement.

MANTALK is also a registered Scottish charity (SC052183)

Happy to Chat, Happy to Listen is another local charity we are delighted to be raising funds for this year. Please read on to find out more info from them.

Happy to Chat, Happy to Listen is a local charity organisation working to reduce the stigma that surrounds mental health and su***de.

Our Bench Trail is one of the ways we bring people together. Alongside the trail, we currently have five regular drop-ins, providing welcoming, safe spaces where people can come along, chat, listen, connect and find support. Our work covers a range of areas including social isolation, mental health, recovery and wellbeing — because sometimes simply having someone to talk to can make all the difference.

We also believe that mental health education should start early. We deliver Mental Health First Aid courses for community groups and businesses, helping people recognise the signs that someone may be struggling and giving them the confidence to have those important conversations.

Our work also takes us into local schools. Working alongside First Aid Perthshire to deliver Mini Medics First Aid and Mental Health First Aid sessions in primary schools, primarily supporting P6 and P7 pupils. Last year, we were fortunate to visit Blairgowrie High School, delivering Youth Mental Health First Aid to S3 students, and we are delighted that dates have already been agreed for the coming school year.

We believe mental health is just as important as physical health — yet there is still a divide between the two. We want to help change that by making conversations about mental health as normal, accessible and accepted as conversations about physical health.
Our 24-hour Walkathon is a great example of what we are all about. Yes, it involves walking for 24 hours, but the walking is only part of the story. Talking, connection, friendship and community are at the heart of it. It creates opportunities for people to walk together, talk together, check in with one another and remind ourselves that none of us has to face things alone.

As we continue to grow, we are looking for more trustees and volunteers to join us. Whether you can offer time, skills, ideas, experience or simply a willingness to get involved, we'd love to hear from you.


Connecting communities, starting conversations and making mental health matter.
