Mental Health Awareness Week 2025
Research shows that exercise can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression by up to 30% and strong social connections can increase resilience, lower stress levels and boost overall happiness.
Through group challenges, shared experiences and open conversations about mental health we want to reinforce that the gym is more than just about the physical movement, and when we come together, we can lift the load together.
Welcome to our Mental Health Hub; a space full of tips, advice and real stories from the PureGym community. Explore our latest blogs and resources designed to help support your mental wellbeing, inside and outside the gym.
We're proud to partner with ANDYSMANCLUB and MAN Magazine, two incredible organisations breaking down stigma and starting important conversations around mental health.
ANDYSMANCLUB
ANDYSMANCLUB are a men's suicide prevention charity, offering free to attend peer-to-peer support groups across the United Kingdom and online. We want to end the stigma surrounding men's mental health and help men through the power of conversation. #ITSOKAYTOTALK
We sat down with Luke Ambler, founder of ANDYS MAN CLUB, to hear first-hand about the incredible impact he's having on men's mental health across the UK. Watch our video as our very own PT, Matthew, finds out more.
