This week is Men's Health Week, so we want to tell you about 'Cook and Grow' our new group creating safe spaces for men's mental health discussions.
🌱Launched just last month, our Cook and Grow group provides a safe, supportive space where men can share life’s challenges, swap ideas, and explore ways to seek help when needed.
🍳 Each session combines basic gardening — planting and harvesting ingredients — with cooking and eating together while having positive discussions. Everyone's been enjoying themselves cooking, eating, and gardening in the sunshine.
🗣️ The group would like to explore welcoming guest speakers, especially those with lived experience of mental health and a background in sports, to help spark meaningful conversations.
📅 'Cook and Grow' is currently meeting weekly at Flower Pod Newark, but will soon transition to monthly gatherings to keep the momentum going.
This project is supported by Nottinghamshire County Council 💚
