Uncle Matt’s Chats x Barclays – 9th Oct, London

October 9, 2025 @ 4:30 PM - 7:30 PM

Free

The One Where We Take Over a Bank!

Me: “This is a stick-up!”

Barclays Teller: “You’re holding a baseball cap.”

Me: “Yes, and I’m here to steal your… event space.”

Barclays Teller: “…Alright?”

…and that’s how we ended up hosting a mental health event at Barclays Moorgate.

From Chapels to Pubs… to Banks

After hijacking a chapel and a pub, we’ve levelled up — Uncle Matt’s Chats is now taking over a bank.

But don’t worry, instead of stealing cash, we’re handing out ideas.

  • Ideas about spotting the signs early
  • Ideas about talking before things hit crisis point
  • Ideas about how to stop pretending you’re “fine” when you’re very much not fine.

Expect Sarcasm, Snacks, and Serious Chats

There’ll be food. There’ll be drink.

There might even be a group mortgage application (only if it happens naturally and nobody makes it weird).

If you like your mental health events served with sarcasm — and your hats served in ice cream tubs — this one’s for you.

Who’s Talking

We’ve got a brilliant line-up ready to share their stories and spark some conversations:

  • Steve Willicott – The guy who accidentally turned grief into a hat brand and is now somehow running mental health events.
  • Richard Pearce – A real-life Barclays VP, proving that talking about mental health is actually allowed in corporate land.
  • Jake Mills – Founder of Chasing the Stigma, joining for a fireside chat on why prevention always beats waiting until everything goes completely wrong.
