Thursday 13th June 2024
7.30pm – 9.30pm
Film Screening: “Steve”
We invite you to attend a special screening of STEVE – a documentary about male mental health.
Trigger warning : suicide is the biggest killer of men under 45 in the UK.
12 men a day. 1 every 2 hours.
One of those men was Steve Yates. But Steve was more than a number, he was a father, a son, a brother, and a friend. And director Ben Akers’s childhood best friend.
In this 90-minute documentary, Ben goes on a mission to look at why this is happening. And what men can do to help themselves.
While the subject matter is sensitive, Ben has created an empowering film of real warmth, and hope, that tries to push us all on from Mental Health Awareness to Mental Health Action. You won’t want to miss it.
Please join us at the Langton Community Hub in the Pavilion Cafe on Thursday 13th June from 7.30pm where refreshments will be available before the film begins at 8pm. The documentary is about men but is not exclusively for men – the film provides real insight regarding male emotional and mental fitness. Mums, sisters, wives, aunties, friends – you will be glad you came to better equip yourself in discussing these significant emotional health matters.
Entry is free, but donations on the night are very welcome. Half of the evening’s proceeds will go to Ben Aker’s charity TALK CLUB.
With grateful thanks to the Langton Green Village Society for enabling Thrive Langton to use the Community Hub space to show this film.
Location: Langton Community Hub in the Pavilion Cafe
