ABOUT THE CHARITY
Spoke to a Bloke is a charity focussed on supporting Men's Mental Health. We started the charity after loosing our brother and best mate to suicide. We run a number of events including WALK FOR A BLOKE which this year saw 900+ blokes walking on one day across 7 locations to raise funds, drive awareness and connect. Our projects include the 121 PROJECT which delivers direct professional help via our network of specialist psychologists, for blokes that need financial assistance.
There are five co-founders, we all volunteer our time however we now need an Operations/Project Manager to help us handle the increased work load and to grow so we can hit our goals and help as many blokes as possible.
