MEET YOUR WALK LEADER
MEET JAMES
I am James, father of 3 and live in Richmond, London having also spent an unforgettable 3 years in Manly, Sydney 10 years ago.
I first met Nick professionally in 2006 in London and our work relationship developed into friendship and our families connected when we were both living in Sydney. Coincidentally, I also met Paul Dunn one of the founders whilst playing for Harbord Diggers before Nick moved back to Australia. Having had my own challenges with my own mental health, if I can do my little bit to raise awareness and help the next bloke reach out and talk about their challenges then it's a charity and a movement I want to get involved with and support.
FAQ
WHY IS THE WALK JUST FOR BLOKES?
It also serves as medicine, enabling blokes to be active, to connect, listen, learn and to share in the walk and building resilience through action. We recognise wives, girlfriends, sisters, mothers and mates play an important role in blokes lives and welcome the women in your life to join as a supporter (see ticketing option) or a volunteer (contact bec@spoketoabloke.org).
