London Designer Outlet Teams Up with Talk Club
At LDO we are proud to have joined forces with Talk Club, a leading men’s mental health charity, to create real change — helping guys open up, check in on their mental wellbeing and feel supported.
Let’s be honest, it’s not always easy for men to talk about how they’re feeling. That’s where Talk Club steps in, offering a simple way to start conversations that matter.
The Talk Club “How Are You? Out of 10” is a powerful yet simple way for guys to check in with themselves and each other. Whether you’re feeling a solid 9 or barely scraping a 3, sharing your number is a first step toward feeling better.
LDO will be bringing those chats into everyday spaces by hosting pop-ups, events, and awareness campaigns that make mental fitness part of the norm. By linking up with Talk Club, LDO is helping to break the stigma around men’s mental health and turning a trip to the shops into something way more meaningful.
Talk & Trim
For our first collab with Talk Club, we launched Talk & Trim; a special barbershop pop-up which aimed to support men’s mental wellbeing in an environment they already trust.
Taking place during the bustling FA Cup Final weekend, Talk & Trim turned our Cube Space into a dynamic barbershop setting, offering free trims and valuable emotional check-ins.
Visitors were asked the cornerstone question of Talk Club: “How are you? Out of 10?” This simple prompt, shown to boost wellbeing by over 15%, created a safe entry point for honest conversations that looked to help reduce isolation and improve resilience.
A team of professional barbers, all trained in Talk Club’s “Captain” programme, engaged visitors with empathy, encouragement, and connection.
Talk Club is a Registered Charity no.1194033.
