'I’ve managed to make some terrific friendships along the way.'
Menself+ was founded in 2015 to provide a supportive environment for men in Glasgow to explore and enhance their physical, emotional, and mental health.
Iain Gair, from Shettleston, is one of the Menself+ volunteers who recently became a qualified walk leader after joining the group four years ago. “My mental health has improved massively thanks to the programme. Being a health walk leader allows me to chat to others about any issues in my life, to discuss any problems that the group might be having, and to just be there for someone in need.”
“If someone was on the fence about joining a Health Walk or thinking of becoming a walk leader, I would say get yourself out there and try it. We have a joke and a laugh: your ability doesn’t even matter because everyone takes it as their own pace.”
