Back in early 2016 I set up the Guardians of the Beard Facebook Group.
In the early days I had so many people asking “Guardians! What are you Guarding?”
But I just couldn’t think of a name for a group and so I sat down with my daughter and went through film lists adding beard in and you know where we stopped!

But I know can say that what we are guarding is our members because since the early days we have freely spoken about mental health and encouraged our members to speak up rather than suffer in silence. My wife is a trained counsellor and is on hand to reply to anyone who needs help!
But first yes it is a beard group but we don’t go for the whole macho I am a Viking/Lumberjack/Warrior ethos.
Yes we love to post a selfie and talk about beard care but the backbone of Guardians is humour!
We are extremely lucky to have six amazing group sponsors
We could have more as I am asked but I feel that having more will mean less of the spotlight shining on the brands and we don’t have sponsors to benefit the admins. All we ask of our sponsors is a giveaway twice a year and that month is their month with their logo in the header!
So if you are looking for a Facebook beard group that doesn’t take itself too seriously, head on over and join us!
