Men's Retreat

Step away from the noise. Spend a weekend outdoors. Reconnect with yourself, and other men.

This Wild Embers Men’s Mental Health Retreat is a chance to slow things down, get some fresh air, and take a break from the pressures of everyday life.

This retreat is for men who:

  • Feel like they’ve been carrying a lot lately

  • Want space to reset and clear their head

  • Are open to being outdoors and around others

  • Or simply need a different kind of weekend

 

You don’t need to have anything “wrong” to come along.

What to expect

This is a relaxed, supportive weekend spent outdoors, centred around connection, reflection, and simple, grounding activities.

 

Across the weekend, there will be opportunities for:

  • Sitting around the fire and sharing good food

  • Optional group circles for conversation and reflection

  • Time alone to think, walk, or just be

  • A talk on men’s physical health

  • A trip to the sea with an optional cold water dip

  • A fire-cooked feast to close the day

We know it’s not always easy to sign up to something like this. You won’t be expected to be anyone other than yourself. You can take part as much or as little as you like. Sometimes just showing up is enough.

Testimonials

“My boy has blossomed at Wild Embers, he loves it... I have noticed the confidence and interests he has on different topics; he learns best hands on and with his needs, he feels happier being in this environment, he’s never had a bad day its always been his best day ever."
