Men Do Talk

EmpOwering Men, strengthening communities

Welcome to X-4RCE CIC!

At X-4RCE, we believe that no man should face life’s struggles alone. Based in Luton, we offer free peer led support groups, one to ones, fitness sessions, educational sessions, and volunteering opportunities give men a safe, judgment-free space to talk, listen, and heal. What you see here isn’t staged—it’s real people showing up for each other, week after week.

💚 Powering Change Together

Greenway Solar are fundraising to support our vision of a new Mental Health Support Bus for Luton.

Through their incredible efforts, Duncan and the Greenway Solar team are raising money to help us bring free, community-based mental health support right where it’s needed most.

This bus will be a safe, welcoming space for men in Luton, tackling isolation, promoting wellbeing, and creating real opportunities for change.
