What else can we do for you?
As men with busy lives and lots of responsibilities, attending events and making time for yourself often falls to the back of the list. Are we right? So we're keen to know what you would actually find useful - perhaps it's an online game, talking to other men virtually or a day out kayaking or walking. Whatever the idea, we'd like to hear from you. Email us at hello@eddy.network.
