Matty J Interview with Sean Cooper – Spoke To A Bloke | Walk for a Bloke Broome 160326

Matty J from Radio Goolarri chats with Sean Cooper, Broome ambassador for Spoke To A Bloke, about the upcoming Walk for a Bloke and the important work being done to support men’s mental health in Broome, the Kimberley and beyond. Spoke To A Bloke began after the tragic loss of a loved one named Nick, a larger-than-life character who used to organise a 25km walk each year with his mates as a way of bringing blokes together. What started as Nick’s Walk has now grown into a global movement encouraging men to check in on their mates and speak up when they’re struggling. Sean shares powerful stories about the walk, how it started right here in Broome, and how the event now takes place across Australia and around the world. The walk isn’t just about the distance – it’s about creating space for men to talk, support each other and break the stigma around mental health. This year’s Walk for a Bloke kicks off in Broome from Men’s Outreach Service on Hamersley Street, with a 25km route around town – though participants can walk as much or as little as they like. Whether you walk in Broome or wherever you are in the world, the message is simple: Check in with your mates. Speak to a bloke.
