Local men’s mental health and suicide prevention project, Man About Town has found a new venue to hold its fortnightly Vinyl Picnics.
The first Vinyl Picnic since late last year will be held on Sunday, 21 April at Carole’s Kitchen café in Tong Road.
A poster advertising the event states the picnic is ‘for the benefit of men, not at the exclusion of women’.
The philosophy behind the Vinyl Picnic is for men to meet in a safe space to socialise and listen to records played on a portable record player.
Participants are welcome to bring their own vinyl, group facilitators also bring records to play. The Vinyl Picnics run alongside walks on alternate Sundays, from 10.30am to 12.30pm.
The project has been running for almost five years and also holds a music group that meets on Wednesdays at 10am at Woodhouse Community Centre.
