GASPED are a well established service in Wakefield offering counselling and practical and emotional support services since 1995. The service has changed and adapted over the years to meet the needs of people residing in Wakefield.

MAN MATTERS is a project within GASPED.

We identified gaps in service delivery. We ran two workshops; co-produced by ourselves, local men with lived experience and service providers.

The initial funding was submitted in December 2019. In April 2022, the grant was received to provide a much needed service for males in the Wakefield District.

The MAN MATTERS Project has been running since June 2022.

The MAN MATTERS Team currently consists of 5 people:

  • Project Manager

The counsellors are within GASPED.
