A man who came to a charity in a “terrible place” is now planning to help festival goers at Glastonbury.
Chris Tyrrell, a 45 year-old from Halewood, came to The Florrie in Dingle while he was severely struggling with his mental health. Chris was supported by the charity, and began taking part in the Men’s Wellbeing Walking Group which encourages men to talk openly about their problems.
The walks come from Florrie volunteer Tony Caveney, who started the walks around Liverpool last year. The first session saw just four attendees, but similar walks have taken place across the country since. They have even sprung up worldwide since Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson promoted the group last summer.
