Stepladder’s group supervisor Winston Williams was a driving pressure behind the undertaking, enthusiastic about males’s psychological well being and supporting males to seek out the power to ask for assist when issues weren’t going nicely.
Tragically, Winston died out of the blue in April, an enormous loss to his household, mates, colleagues and the Stepladder undertaking as a complete.

As a tribute to our beloved colleague and pal, Winston, together with his household’s blessing, now we have renamed the initiative in his honour. The innovation fund will now be often known as The Winston Innovation Fund. It stays open for people and organisations to suggest visionary tasks, occasions, coaching programmes, or group actions that assist males’s wellbeing and psychological well being in Somerset.
