Next Chapter Mates

We’ve known each other for more than 30 years — mates since we first crossed paths on the basketball court. Over the years, that connection grew into a close circle of friends who have stuck by each other through life’s highs and lows.
Like many men, we’ve both faced separation at different times in our lives. We know the strain it can put on your head, your heart, and your role as a dad. Having kids ourselves, we also understand how much you want to show up for them while trying to work out who you are again.
That’s why we started Next Chapter Mates. It’s a safe and supportive space where blokes can connect, share, and lean on each other while moving forward. We won’t always be PG, PC and will involve banter - because humour can be just as healing as honesty. You’ll also see a few of our close mates pop in from time to time for a cameo, adding their voices and stories to the mix.
For us, it’s simple: mateship
Your story, your banter, your beer - our mateship’s on tap.
