Croydon Council is excited to announce the launch of a new pilot initiative funded by suicide prevention from South West London ICB. In partnership with The Proper Blokes Club, they will be running 8-week walking sessions in three locations across Croydon, starting this week in Lloyd Park.

These walks are led by men, for men, creating a safe and supportive space to talk about mental health, build resilience, and foster connection. The sessions are designed to encourage open conversations and peer support while enjoying the benefits of being active outdoors.

The Lloyd Park sessions take place every Thursday at 6:30pm, meeting at Lloyd Park Café, CR0 5RB.

The next venue is to be confirmed, and we aim to expand the reach of this initiative across the borough. Our long-term ambition is to train volunteer leaders who can continue to run these walks sustainably beyond the pilot phase.

Please share this opportunity widely through your networks. For further information, please refer to the attached flyer.
