Men Beyond 50 Join MENSPEAK to form new London group

Men Beyond 50, who recently relaunched their website www.menbeyond50.net, have joined forces with MENSPEAK Men's Groups to run Open Men's Groups in London for men over 50.

They say this will be a safe space for men over 50 to discuss anything and everything they wish, from health and relationships to money and retirement and everything in between. The men present in the group decide what's discussed in the group.

The name of the game is self awareness
. No one tells anyone else what to, or what not to do. We share our thoughts and experiences and respectfully challenge one another.

The middle name (of the game) is hanging out with other men. Clean male company, comparing notes and having a laugh. Not a therapy group, our space is more a quick, slick check-in, providing invaluable insights for daily life.

The surname is Bond (no, not James!) With the depth and same-sidedness we naturally slip into, it would be weird not to. This is where a load of men can get together and be on the same side with what we have in common.

OPEN GROUPS: (open to all men, 50+ or interested in 50+ issues) 3rd Monday of the month - 6.45pm for a 7pm start. Doors close 7.10pm. 9.30pm ends. £20 (£15)

For more information see MENSPEAK/MB50 on Meetup


MEN'S GROUP in Central London


A new Men's Group facilitated by psychotherapist Simon Jacobs is starting in Central London on Monday 13th May 2013. 

It promises a supportive way to explore your issues with other men; discover what masculinity means to you; make new friends and connections and benefit from the unique experience of being part of a group.

The group runs on Monday evenings for 2 hours in Regent St, London W1.

The group will run with 6-10 men for 3 'terms' a year, each lasting 12 weeks.
The cost is £35 per evening.

Men are welcome to join the group for one 12 week term only or to remain in the group as a long-term member.

Simon says he has attended workshops and sat in groups with men for a number of years - experiences that have lead him to believe in the unique and healing power of a men's group. 

In addition to his work with individuals at his practice on Regent Street, he runs groups at the Priory Hospital, north London.

Who Can Join? 

The group is open to men from any faith or culture. Straight, gay, single, married, divorced...whatever your status, you will benefit from the group if you have the courage and curiosity to discover more about yourself; a willingness to listen to others; can give and receive feedback with the aim of obtaining greater self-awareness and insights into the habitual roles, patterns and beliefs which may be preventing you from leading a rewarding life.

The group can support you with issues such as: anger/rage, addiction, depression, loneliness, relationship problems or simply if you want to discover and learn more about your journey through life as a man.

How to Join

For more information call 07740 535399 or email simon@london-psychotherapist.co.uk to arrange a meeting with to discuss the group and find out more. This meeting costs nothing and there is no commitment if you feel the group is not right for you.
