This weeks episode features founder and creator of VENT UK, Freddie Cocker. Through his own experiences with mental health he decided there needed to be a place where everyone, but especially men and boys can open up about their mental health issues, break down stigmas and start conversations and so the platform Vent was created. Freddie talks to us all about his experiences and life up until now!

EP 4. “mental health doesn’t discrimnate, it doesn’t matter who you are.”

In this episode of Mind On The Game, we checked-in with Jay Williams. 

Jay is Second Team Men's Captain at Wanstead Cricket Club in North-East London. 

Jay and our Founder Freddie Cocker played in the same team throughout their childhood and teenage years. 

In this pod we discussed Jay's cricketing journey, the mental health responsibilities that captaincy brings, his mixed-race heritage and of course, a mental health chat! 

As always, #itsokaytovent

Mind On The Game - Jay Williams

The Just Checking In Podcast is another step in Vent’s mission to give people a voice, change the conversation around mental health and provide an outlet where everyone, but especially men and boys, can express themselves.

Each pod we check in with a special guest. We have a natter and a chat about all things mental health as well as anything and everything else they're passionate about. 

If it helps that person with their mental health, we'll discuss it!
