North Fitzroy - Open Men's Group

Our regular face-to-face Open Men's Group meeting is held at the inner city location at the North Fitzroy Library (Seminar Room 2), and hosted and facilitated by experienced members of Mens Wellbeing Inc.

During 2024, this North Fitzroy group will be held on the third Tuesday of each month, and is open to all men who feel the need to connect with our community of men, but especially those who may be experiencing isolation due to their personal circumstances. No prior sign up or ongoing commitment required. No prior experience of men's groups is required.

Why should you come to one of our Open Men's Groups?

• It's a place where you can come and share what's going on for you in confidence, where you can be heard and not judged.
• Just by being there, listening and witnessing what's going on for another man, you're helping him heal and grow.
• Being part of a group with other like minded men can help us feel good about ourselves and others.

If you’re already involved in a group, this is a great gift to give another man, bring a mate into our groups and have him experience the support and compassion that other men can offer.

Plan to arrive early to settle in and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee before our 7:00pm (sharp) start. You will be unable to join after the group has started to ensure confidentiality, so please be punctual.

Participation in the group is free (but not free for us to host).
