A man from Sheffield is walking more than 20 miles a day, from John O\u2019Groats to Land\u2019s End, for men\u2019s mental health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jordan Darby, 39, from Sheffield, set off on his journey on 1 May and will be covering around 1200 miles to raise money for Andy\u2019s Man Club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The charity is close to his heart after struggling for more than 20 years with his mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He encourages others to get outside and embrace nature, as he acknowledges how much it has helped him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said: \u201cI have had some of the best days of my life outside hiking, and seen so many amazing things and so many amazing places. Before I started getting out, I hadn\u2019t seen owt.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Andy\u2019s Man Club is a mental health charity that runs free, volunteer-led talking groups for men aged 18 and over every Monday across the UK. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although Mr Darby has never used these services himself, he thinks it is important for people who are struggling to reach out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
