Borders Jambo Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Fantastic initiative and well done Hearts. Anything that helps with mental health, social issues, loneliness deserves credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigHearts Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Delighted to see this pop back onto the first page of 'The Terrace' and thought it was worth providing a short update from a Big Hearts point of view. Since launch at Tynecastle Park, The Changing Room has been incredibly positive for those who have got involved. The project has a number of strands but we are really keen to keep developing and grow the number of men involved. We'll shortly be releasing details of various activities held throughout the week at Tynecastle for everyone to engage with and our next 12 week programme kicks off at the start of June. A key part of the project is raising awareness and understanding of Mental Health across the entire Hearts' family and we'd be delighted to hold unique sessions for any groups, organisations or individuals who think this would be worthwhile. We'd be delighted to do a specific session for members of JKB as an example. Generally, I'd encourage anyone who wishes to get involved in supporting or attending to drop us a note for a chat: [email protected] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo 4 Ever Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 thinking of going to the next group - how many normally go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bn jambo Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 It varies, the group I was on had 6 plus the two guys who run it but then occasionally guys from the first group would come along. It's really informal and worth going to, the first couple of weeks some people are quite others chat more but Dougie the main guy is good at getting everyone involved.

I was pretty nervous because I didn't know what to expect or what was expected of me, it's really relaxed, if you want to talk then that's good if not nobody is going to judge you for that, different people take different amounts of time to get involved.

millano77 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 (edited) This is a fantastic program. I was in the first group and go along to the fortnightly catch-up which happens when you have finished the 12 week course. I also try and attend the other sessions for myself and extra support to people going. Definitely worth going to and look forward to meeting those in the next group like bn jambo feel free to pm me if you want to know more.
