Proud to support Man Down UK
HHSS is proud to support Man Down UK. Every hoodie, tee, cap and sticker sold sends a fixed donation to Man Down UK, a men's mental health non-profit Community Interest Company (CIC).
We're proud to announce that donations from every HHSS order now go to Man Down UK — a non-profit Community Interest Company offering free, informal peer support to men aged 18+ who are struggling with any kind of mental health issue.
Who Man Down UK are
Man Down UK began in Cornwall in 2019, when the first group opened in Penryn with 8 men in attendance. As demand for men's mental health support grew, so did they.
In 2025 alone, over 7,500 men walked through their doors. Since 2024 they've expanded beyond Cornwall, and there are now more than 45 meeting group locations across the UK, all run by brilliant volunteer facilitators.
Sessions are deliberately informal: a safe and relaxed environment with no judgement — only support and understanding from people who are there to listen. You'll find them at mandown.org.
Why Man Down UK
When we looked for where our donations should go, the shortlist was short: UK-based, frontline support, a genuine focus on men's mental health. Man Down UK ticks every box — and the format matters too. No referral, no waiting list, no clinical threshold. A man can just turn up, sit down and be heard.
What we'll publish
This page stays as the record: who receives the donations, how much has been raised, and when it was sent. No vague "a portion of proceeds" language — £5 per hoodie, £3 per tee, £2 per cap and £1 per sticker, fixed and built into the price.
