				<title>Silent Storms venues merge</title>
				<link>https://www.silentstorms.co.uk/community/fleet/farnborough/venue-update/</link>
				<pubDate>Wed, 20 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate>
				<description>&lt;p&gt;Due to changes in circumstances regarding venue and mentor availability, we have had to consider a restructure and realignment. With this in mind, we will be merging our Fleet and Farnborough venues.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There will be no further sessions at Fleet Town Football Club or Farnborough Football Club after Monday 18th May.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We will relaunch the merged group on Tuesday 2nd June at:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Love Your Studio Farnborough&lt;br /&gt;
Unit 60–62 Kingsmead&lt;br /&gt;
Farnborough&lt;br /&gt;
GU14 7SL&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Time: 19:00–21:00&lt;br /&gt;
The group will then run every Tuesday thereafter.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This move marks an exciting new chapter for Silent Storms as we continue our commitment to wellbeing, mindfulness, connection, and community.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We strongly believe that environment plays a vital role in healing, reflection, and personal growth. Love Your Studio offers a calm and welcoming atmosphere that perfectly aligns with our vision.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As awareness around mental health and emotional wellbeing continues to grow, we remain dedicated to creating supportive and inclusive spaces where individuals can reconnect with themselves and others.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Alternatively, you can join us at our Aldershot group every Monday:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Aldershot Enterprise Centre&lt;br /&gt;
14–40 Victoria Road&lt;br /&gt;
Aldershot&lt;br /&gt;
GU11 1TQ&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Time: 19:00–21:00&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Apologies if this causes any inconvenience to anybody. However, we hope to see you at a group session in Farnborough or Aldershot soon.&lt;/p&gt;

				<title>Silent Storms Prison Project!</title>
				<link>https://www.silentstorms.co.uk/community/prison/nhs%20inclusion/silentstorms-prison-project/</link>
				<pubDate>Sat, 21 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate>
				<description>&lt;p&gt;We are now working alongside NHS Inclusion to deliver peer-support-sessions within a Prison Environment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Many men behind the walls carry heavy stories — isolation, regret, trauma and a lack of safe spaces to talk. Through simple conversation, shared experience and non-judgemental support, we’re helping create moments where they can be heard, understood and reminded they still have value.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This partnership isn’t about fixing people.
It’s about connection, accountability and hope.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Because rehabilitation doesn’t start with punishment…
it starts with being seen.&lt;/p&gt;

				<title>Silent Storms coming soon to Farnborough FC</title>
				<link>https://www.silentstorms.co.uk/community/farnborough/farnborough-fc-in-the-community-and-silent-storms/</link>
				<pubDate>Tue, 29 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate>
				<description>&lt;p&gt;Silent Storms, the rapidly growing men’s peer-to-peer support network, is proud to announce the launch of a new weekly support group in partnership with Farnborough FC Community Trust. This new club, based at the Saunders Transport Community Stadium, marks an important step in bringing mental health support to more men across the Hampshire area.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Founded on the belief that talking isn’t weakness, it’s strength, Silent Storms provides free, safe, and confidential spaces for men aged 18 and over to talk, connect, and support one another through shared experience. The Farnborough group will be the latest addition to its expanding community of support circles already operating successfully in Aldershot and Fleet.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&quot;launch-details&quot;&gt;Launch Details&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;First Session: Monday, 11 August 2025&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Time: 7:00pm – 9:00pm&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Venue: The Community Hub, Saunders Transport Community Stadium, Farnborough.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Cost: Free and open to all men aged 18+, no booking required.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Weekly sessions will include informal group discussions and opportunities for weekend walk &amp;amp; talk meetups, offering flexibility for those who prefer quieter or more active ways of connecting.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&quot;a-powerful-partnership&quot;&gt;A Powerful Partnership&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This expansion is made possible through collaboration with Farnborough FC Community Trust (FFCCT), a registered charity that supports a wide range of wellbeing and inclusion initiatives across the town. Their welcoming Community Hub provides the perfect environment for Silent Storms to carry out its mission—helping men feel seen, heard, and supported.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;“We’re delighted to bring Silent Storms to Farnborough and extremely grateful to the Community Trust for opening their doors,” said a Silent Storms Trustee. “Football clubs like Farnborough are already trusted pillars in their communities, and by working together we can make sure no man feels he has to suffer in silence.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&quot;get-involved&quot;&gt;Get Involved&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether you’re struggling, supporting a friend, or simply seeking community, you are welcome. No experience, expectations, or sign-up required—just come as you are.&lt;/p&gt;

With plans to expand, Silent Storms aims to reach more individuals who feel isolated and in need of support.
