Chris Guy
Chairman
We are a dedicated men's mental health charity committed to breaking the silence and stigma surrounding mental well-being. At a time when far too many men still suffer in silence, our mission is clear: to provide a safe, supportive space where conversations about mental health are not only welcomed, but encouraged.
With a passionate team, growing community support, and a shared vision for positive change, we're entering an exciting new chapter. Our plans for the future include expanding outreach programs, creating more peer-led support groups, and launching innovative initiatives that connect men across Merseyside and beyond. Together, we’re building something truly meaningful - a movement where no man feels alone, and every voice matters.
This journey is just beginning, and I’m incredibly excited about what we’ll achieve together. Let’s grow, support, and thrive together.
Eddie Morgan
Trustee
As a veteran, I’ve witnessed both the visible and hidden impacts of poor mental health, on myself, on friends, and on their families within the army community. That’s why I truly understand the value and positive impact an organisation like the Mersey Mind Project can have, not just on individuals but on the wider community.
I bring a hands-on, practical approach to support the charity and help drive forward everything we’re working to achieve.
At the heart of it all is a simple mission: to support men across Merseyside.
Myself and the other members of this project share a fire inside us. A passion, a purpose, and a deep commitment.

Sam Roberts
Trustee
I live in Liverpool, but I am originally from Torquay in Devon. I'm married and have two step sons as well as two sons.
I started seeking help for my mental health back in 2018. Through a combination of work pressure, stresses of family life (which include caring for my disabled mother in law and 2 autistic children), and the battle I was having with myself, feeling like I was never good enough, led to me having a mental breakdown and attempting to take my own life.
I started seeking help from various different organisations, which really did help. It was through this help that I started to explore my own autism. I started to understand more about the condition, and things just started to make more sense. It answered a lot of questions for me about why I am the way I am. And from there, I am able to cope better in life in most situations.
I am in a much better place today, thanks to the help of organisations like the Mersey Mind Project. Together, we can beat the stigma that surrounds mental health and be able to talk about it, especially in men.
I am committed to ensuring that everyone who uses our service can feel welcome and use Mersey Mind Project as a safe space. Through sharing our experiences together, we can build a community where anyone from any walk of life can feel safe and valued.
Richard Whelan
Trustee
I’m excited to be part of this incredible journey and can’t wait to see the impact of the charity’s work come to life.
A bit about me, I was born and raised in a council house in the heart of Birkenhead. I started my working life as a plastering apprentice and, over the years, worked my way up to become a surveyor.
More recently, I was diagnosed with both ADHD and autism, something I’m still coming to terms with. For a long time, I thought I was the problem. It was only through experiencing stress, anxiety, and eventually depression that I reached out for help and received my diagnosis. There were some very dark moments along the way, but that journey has helped me better understand myself and the importance of mental health support.
I’m passionate about breaking the stigma around mental health and neurodiversity, and I hope that together, we can create a space where others feel seen, support.
