What is Walk for a Bloke
Walk for a Bloke is more than just a 25km challenge. It’s a day for blokes to step up, walk side by side, and make a real difference for men’s mental health.
This is your chance to reconnect with old mates, meet new ones, and be part of something bigger - a movement that gets blokes talking, walking, and supporting one another.
Whether you walk solo, rally your mates into a team, or get your whole workplace involved, every step you take helps change the story for men’s mental health.

Looking forward to the challenge
Wednesday 18th Mar So, I'm Gareth and I was introduced some months ago to Walk for a Bloke after attending an event about Men's Mental Health. A topic in which I'm very interested, with Men's Mental Health occupying a spot very close to my heart for various reasons..Roll forward to now, and preparations are well underway and sponsorship pledges are coming in (thank you to everyone who has sponsored me!).
I'm looking forward to the challenge of walking 25 km in one go. If I learned anything from running the Snowdonia Marathon back in 2008, it's that even though it'll be hard going at times, I'll be with people who are there to support to the cause, be challenged and open to meet strangers who ma well become life-long friends. I'm looking forward to hearing their stories and to share my own.
I'm walking in memory of an old friend who lost his battle with mental health almost 7 years ago now. I often wonder if something like Spoke to a Bloke could have helped him to still be here today with his family. This is for you John.
