Token Man Brave Spaces (for Men)


Join us for our latest Token Man Brave Space, taking place on Tue 22 Jul at 1600 BST.

Get ready to dive into a world of meaningful conversations and thought-provoking discussions. This online event aims to create a safe and inclusive space where those who identify as men can openly share their experiences, challenges, and triumphs. It's an opportunity to break down stereotypes, challenge societal norms, and foster empathy.

THIS MONTH'S THEME : Becoming a Better Ally

Allyship isn’t a badge. It’s a commitment — to listen, to learn, and to act, especially when it’s uncomfortable.

And yet, many men struggle to know where to start. What does good allyship look like in practice? How do you show up without taking up space? How do you support without centring yourself? And how do you get it wrong… and keep going anyway?

This Brave Space is a chance for men to explore what it really means to become a better ally to women and other historically marginalised groups. We’ll unpack the discomfort, challenge the ego, and reflect on the systems that shape us.

Because allyship isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being present. Consistently. Quietly. And sometimes, courageously.

Join us for an honest, judgment-free conversation with others on the same journey — so we can move from passive support to active solidarity, one conversation at a time.

FORMAT

The format for each session will be as follows:

  • Introduction through sharing a feeling using the Feelings wheel
  • Discussion in pairs to discuss those feelings to engage empathy and create connection
  • Full group discussion around a particular topic which will change every session
  • Anything else anyone would like to bring up

RULES OF THE ROOM

The rules of the room will be as follows:

  • Chatham House rules - you can share stories but they can’t be attributed to a single person (simply because stories is how we shape change)
  • Cameras on
  • Share the air
  • Respect each other
  • Be kind
  • Be Present
