In the run up to International Men's Day, Good Blokes Co is inviting local men to come along to one of its November gatherings and "connect with Good Blokes" on Wednesday, November 2, starting at 6.30pm.

The Monthly Blokes Gathering is an opportunity to share a laugh, have a cuppa and take part in a "real, honest conversation about manhood".

The event is open to any man who’s interested in sharing experiences of masculinity and making the world a better place for future generations of blokes.

The event is $30 attend or free to men who are tight for funds. It takes place at 10 Stack Street, Fremantle (enter via Wood Street).

Who is Good Blokes?

We're a bunch of blokes who reckon life can be better for men in Australia. We've seen the stats on anxiety, depression and suicide in Australian men as well as the damage that men can do and we're not cool with it. We reckon it's time for change and we're doing something about it.

The founder of Good Blokes Co, Mike Dyson is supported on camps and retreats by skilled and enthusiastic facilitators with a wide range of talents. We come from diverse backgrounds and have diverse perspectives, but we're pretty normal blokes, just like you. Our common belief is that men need spaces to explore how to be happier and healthier for our own sake, for our mates sake, for our boys sake and for the sake of women and girls who feel the brunt when men go off the rails.
