Men’s Mental Health Month: The Proper Blokes is the walk and talk group breaking the stigma on men talking about their feelings

Men’s Mental Health Month sheds light on the work of charities such as The Proper Blokes Club, a London based project helping to combat the stigma on men talking about their feelings.

Founded in 2020, the Proper Blokes Club is a walk and talk community group project where men can openly discuss their feelings in a safe, non-judgemental environment.

Originally founded by Scott Oughton-Johnson, after struggling with his own mental health during lock-down, the project now has hundreds of men headed out on their weekly walks across London.

The South West Londoner joined their Streatham collective to speak to the attendees and to see what the charity is all about.
