We asked Boys Talk host Matt (@taplinscott) to share with us why he volunteers his time for
@tnncharity…
“TNN means a great deal to me because I honestly don’t know where I would be without it. I found the charity at a time when my life didn’t make much sense, and I didn’t know how to move forward.
The meetings gave me a safe space to talk about my struggles. They helped me better understand my thoughts and feelings, and how my experiences had shaped my life.
Over time, I realised I was no longer attending solely to talk about my grief. I had found something even more valuable: a community of people who understood what I had been through and who were there for me when I needed them most.
That’s why I’m still here more than seven years later. The support I received from TNN was so invaluable that I wanted to give something back and help provide that same support to others.
It’s a privilege to host Boys Talk meetings for the charity — creating a safe space, for men’s mental health, supporting others, and most importantly, witnessing the positive changes in people as they grow in confidence.
