Show Notes
Welcome to the Somerset Emotional Wellbeing (SEW) podcast! In this episode, Men’s Mental Health, our hosts Dr. Andrew Tresidder and Dr. Peter Bagshaw are joined by Gareth John from the Unbreakable Men’s Sports Club to discuss men’s mental health and the benefits of being active in detail.
During the conversation, they discuss Gareth’s work with the Unbreakable Men’s Sports Club, how Somerset Activity & Sports Partnership want to help people get active to enhance their wellbeing and how physical group activities can help people to be open and support each other through tough times.
The SEW podcast was a free weekly show hosted by Dr. Andrew Tresidder, Dr. Peter Bagshaw and Dr. Kate Staveley; after this episode, it has now become the Health and Self Care podcast. In each episode, the doctors discuss a different topic related to mental and emotional wellbeing and often invite expert guests to join them in conversation. The show is aimed at the people of Somerset and beyond; the advice and guidance provided should apply to anybody who needs it, whenever they need it.
