Welcome to The Great Oak Herf, a unique social support group based in Nottingham. As a dedicated gathering of cigar enthusiasts, we focus on fostering a relaxed and comfortable environment for men to discuss mental health. Cigars have long been associated with camaraderie, and here, we take that tradition further by creating a safe space where everyone can be heard and supported. I started this group to break down the barriers surrounding men's mental health and to create a community that truly understands the importance of open conversations.
At The Great Oak Herf, I believe that sharing experiences over a fine cigar can lead to meaningful connections. Our meetings are designed to be non-judgmental and inclusive, allowing every member to feel at ease. With a passion for both cigars and mental health advocacy, we aim to reduce the stigma surrounding issues often faced by men. Join us as we blend the enjoyment of cigar smoking with heartfelt discussions, forging friendships and offering support when it matters most.
Choosing The Great Oak Herf means joining a welcoming community prepared to tackle the important issues of men's mental health. Our relaxed atmosphere encourages open dialogue, allowing every member to share their thoughts without judgement. I prioritise meaningful connections and authentic experiences within our meetings, ensuring that each gathering brings value to our members' lives. By combining the enjoyment of cigar smoking with mental health advocacy, we cultivate not just friendships but a support network that truly understands our shared challenges.
