The Nest

Documentary about Squirrel’s Nest, a workshop where men can open up about their mental health. The Nest has saved lives, but now its future is in danger.

Squirrel’s Nest is not only a workshop, but also a place you can come if you’re struggling. It’s a part of the Men’s Shed movement, which encourages men to open up about mental health, grief and loneliness. It has been a lifeline for its members, but its future is now in danger.

Mandy Thomas is a photographer and has been coming to The Nest for years. She talks to the Squirrel’s Nest founders, finding out why they set it up in the first place, and to the ‘Squirrels’ themselves, hearing how coming to The Nest has changed them.
