Jim Cassidy - Men Matter Scotland
Jim first came to Men Matter Scotland feeling angry and bitter, seeking help through our mental health classes. Through peer support, open conversations, and wellbeing activities, he experienced a life changing improvement in his mental health. Grateful for the support he received, Jim became a volunteer at our Drumchapel hub, working three days a week. He now plays a vital role welcoming men, supporting those in crisis, driving the minibus, and helping with outreach, talks, and prison programmes. Despite health challenges, Jim has completed multiple mental health qualifications and now mentors others, often being the first friendly face men meet.
