Island Echo has agreed a new media partnership with Mindset Bros, a community‑focused organisation dedicated to supporting men’s mental health and wellbeing across the Isle of Wight.
Mindset Bros is a community built by friends who have become brothers through shared experience and a commitment to supporting men’s mental wellbeing. The organisation exists to break the silence around men’s mental health, creating safe and confidential spaces where individuals can talk openly, find peer support, and feel part of a community without judgement.
The group hosts a range of activities, including free meet‑ups, one‑to‑one conversations, and community gatherings where men can share their struggles and successes. These events are designed to help men connect with others, access support, and build friendships while promoting healthy coping strategies for life’s challenges.
This partnership will see the Island’s largest independent news provider feature regular updates on Mindset Bros’ activities, events, and ways to get involved. The collaboration aims to connect more men with resources and opportunities to access community support, further strengthening the support network available to men across the Isle of Wight.
Darren Toogood, Editor/Publisher of Island Echo, has said:
“We are honoured to partner with Mindset Bros and help amplify the important work they are doing here on the Isle of Wight.
“Men’s mental wellbeing is something that affects families, workplaces, and communities right across the island, and by working together we can encourage more people to reach out, speak up, and feel supported”.
Ross Taylor, Founder of Mindset Bros, says:
“This partnership with Island Echo means we can spread the word further about our mission and the support available for men across the Isle of Wight.
“We want every man to know that support, camaraderie, and understanding are here for you, and that together we can challenge stigma and create real change”.
