🚌🌴 THE MAN VAN HAS LEFT THE BUILDING… AND IS OFF ON A VAN-CATION! 😎☀️

After months on the road, OVER 1,700+ PSA tests, countless conversations about men’s health and more community events than we can count, the Man Van has officially clocked off. 🚌💨

And quite frankly… it’s earned a holiday. 😂

So the passport is packed, the sunglasses are on, the flip-flops are out and the Man Van is officially:

🏖️ OUT OF OFFICE
🍹 DO NOT DISTURB
🧴 SPF: HIGH (Don't forget yours!)
🚌 DESTINATION: SOMEWHERE SUNNY

Today marked the final session of the Man Van as part of this project, and we just want to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone who has been part of the journey. 💙

From the men who came along for a PSA test, to those who stopped for a chat, brought a friend, shared our posts, supported our events or helped us take the Man Van out into the community…

YOU made this project what it was. ❤️

And what a journey it's been!

🚌 1,700+ PSA tests
🐉 A Dragons’ Den win
💬 Thousands of conversations
📍 Countless community visits
❤️ Lots of brilliant memories

But don't panic… this isn't goodbye. 👀

The Man Van is just taking a well-earned break before we start the next chapter.

September = NEW PROJECT. 👀

We can't reveal too much just yet… but let's just say the Man Van might want to keep its passport handy. 🌎🚌😂

For now…

MAN VAN: OUT OF OFFICE. 🌴☀️

Thank you, Blackburn with Darwen. 💙

See you in October! 👀

🚌🌴

🚐💙🚨 A VERY IMPORTANT MAN VAN ANNOUNCEMENT! 🚨💙🚐

The Man Van is heading into its final few weeks, and we’ve got four more chances for you to come and see us before we close this chapter of the project.

And what a journey it has been… 💙

Since launching, we have carried out over 1,500 PSA tests across Blackburn with Darwen, won a Dragons’ Den, and, most importantly, received some absolutely amazing feedback from the men who have stepped through the doors of the Man Van.

To every single man who has visited us, had a chat with our team, brought a mate along, shared our posts, told someone about us or simply stopped to find out what we’re all about…

THANK YOU. ❤️

We genuinely couldn’t have done it without you.

You’ve helped us show that talking about men’s health doesn’t have to be awkward, scary or something to put off until tomorrow. You’ve helped us bring PSA testing directly into the community and, together, we’ve made a real difference.

But… we're not quite finished yet! 👀

📍 Tuesday 11 August
Witton Park Arena (by the gym!)
⏰ 10:00am–4:00pm

📍 Saturday 15 August
YOU DECIDE!
Tell us where you’d like the Man Van to visit!
⏰ 10:00am–4:00pm

📍 Tuesday 18 August
Location TBC
⏰ 10:00am–4:00pm

📍 Saturday 22 August
MOVE Festival, Queen’s Park, Blackburn
⏰ 10:00am–3:00pm

🚌 22 August will be your FINAL chance to visit the Man Van and get your PSA test before this project closes.

September will bring a new chapter, a new project and a new reason to keep talking about the health of the men in our communities.

We can't tell you too much just yet… 🤫

But keep your eyes peeled, because there’s plenty more to come! 👀

From all of us at the Man Van…

THANK YOU, Blackburn with Darwen! 💙
