Menshare Listening Group

Todays world is extremely challenging, from financial pressures, relationship issues and addictions through to bereavement, illness or being a new Dad.

Sometimes we can feel it’s all too much!!

It’s great to have Sean back on SUSY and in this interview he discusses the challenges Men encounter, shares what the menshare listening group is all about and we hear from a man who took the first step to attend and has since massively benefitted, despite being super cynical at the start.

Hopefully, this will be of interest to you or a loved one, below the interview is a link to the menshare listening group website too, including phone number and meeting times etc…

A partnership between county councils, Metrobus and Gatwick Airport, was awarded £10,000,000 which combined with further funding from Metrobus and other partners, brings the total cost of the project to over £24,000,000. 

Hydrogen buses release zero emissions at the tailpipe and help to reduce carbon emissions. 

The buses will connect rural areas with local towns and Gatwick Airport.  Destinations include Caterham, Redhill, Dorking, Crawley and East Grinstead.
