Bike project
At SVB our bike project is aimed to engage with men from European communities, we give people bikes and get them involved in mental health related activities. This project has now finished however we are in talks with partners and we are hoping we will be able to continue our suicide prevention/well-being activities with wider community as it has been a great success so far.
