Rural Media is inviting people in Herefordshire to take part in a paid focus group exploring how men’s mental health is portrayed in film and media. The team wants to hear from anyone with lived experience of mental health challenges, people working in mental health related services, or anyone with an interest in improving how men’s experiences are represented.

The in‑person sessions will take place in Hereford and are relaxed, informal conversations lasting around 90 minutes, with no more than six participants in each group. Everyone taking part will receive £50, along with refreshments, as a thank you. All contributions will be kept confidential and anonymous, and participants are welcome to share only what feels comfortable.

If you’re interested in taking part, please sign up here.
