We have donated £1,000 to a Bedfordshire men’s mental health charity, called For Men To Talk.
Our £1,000 donation comes as part of our monthly community fund, called The Mulberry Community Chest. The contribution will allow For Men To Talk to recruit additional staff and help them host more meetings for men across the county to attend.
This is the third donation we have made to the charity.
Luke Newman, Director of For Men To Talk, said: “This very kind donation from Mulberry Homes, as part of The Mulberry Community Chest, will allow the continual opportunity for men to discuss their mental health.
“In the first half of 2022, we had over 700 attendees to over 50 virtual, physical and walking meetings that we held. Thanks to this contribution, we aim to hold even more meetings and give more men the chance to talk.”
Kerry Jones, Sales and Marketing Director at Mulberry Homes, said: “We are very proud to be supporting For Men To Talk once again, and are delighted to hear that our £1,000 contribution will help the charity reach more men in need of support throughout Bedfordshire.
“Typically, the construction industry has a high number of male workers, so it felt fitting to offer our support to For Men To Talk. Giving back to local communities is a huge part of our ethos at Mulberry Homes, and we’re delighted to be raising awareness of men’s mental health in the process.”
