Brave the Shave for Blokes

My Challenge for a Bloke

I’ve chosen Brave the Shave for Challenge for a Bloke because men’s mental health is a cause that needs more attention, Too many men suffer in silence, afraid to speak up due to stigma or the expectation to "tough it out." I want to challenge that mindset and encourage open conversations about mental health.

Shaving my head is a bold and visible statement—it's a way to show solidarity with those struggling, spark conversations, and break down barriers around mental health. It’s also a reminder that small actions, like checking in on a mate, can make a huge difference.

Personally, I’ve seen how mental health struggles can impact lives, and I want to do my part in raising awareness, supporting those in need, and contributing to positive change. This challenge isn't just about raising funds—it's about encouraging real conversations and making mental well-being a priority for men everywhere.

We are a charity focused on supporting blokes mental health. We do this through running a series of community based events, including Walk for a Bloke and Challenge for a Bloke.

Funds raised via these events are being used to fund two core Spoke to a Bloke Projects;

M.I.N.D.S – The MEN IN NEED OF DIGITAL SUPPORT project is an initiative to bring together a wide range of mental health experts, knowledgeable individuals and everyday blokes to create 24/7 help content aimed at supporting adult and younger men.

121 – The 121 project will deliver direct professional help for blokes that need financial assistance and reach those that need it most.

In addition to our projects, our events also serve as medicine. We enable blokes to be active, to connect, to share, to listen, to learn and to share in events to help build resilience through action.
