Charles Mears

On this episode we are joined by hybrid athlete and mental health advocate Charles Mears. Charles has taken part in a number of incredible challenges and feats of endurance to raise money for mental health charities. His latest undertaking is burpeeing to the top of Ben Nevis. What’s to follow is an open conversation between two men about our experiences with mental health issues, some of our learnings and beliefs and where and how we believe changes can be truly made, in order to reduce stigma and create an environment where men feel comfortable tackling these issues, or seeking help. As well as the barriers we’ve felt in the past, when the shoe is on the other foot and we’ve wanted to help the people close to us.
