Mesmac Training

Mesmac are running the following free sessions for men aged between 16-20 years old. They have 15 sessions a week running, starting from next week and will run over the summer holidays.

What will we cover in the 4 sessions and what to expect.

The sessions are very relaxed and engaging, you won’t be asked to do anything that you might not be comfortable with, for example we will not be asking you to share your mental health issues, but obviously if you feel comfortable and they are relevant it would be great to share your personal experiences.
